From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I recommend replacing GUI apps that you use one by one with CLI apps, I started by changing my file manager to ranger. Don’t rush or you may get overwhelmed and don’t interrupt your workflow too much. Next I started using media players, video editors, and even steamcmd to launch games, try to find a replacement for GUI apps searching online. This list is a good place to start;
