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.

The original image said windows where this would be accurate but I doubt it applies to the average linux user
thanks for the red circles
Extremely important stuff here
The red circles convinced me to enlarge the picture to read it.
I'm confused, is the image about Linux? I don't see it says Linux anywhere in the red circles. /s
I actually do. All the time. And I think you should too. Don't understand why people seem to think there's something wrong with that.
I do too. Its just for fun. BTW you should check out _____.
Wow this looks awesome! Thanks for the recommendation!
No! I prefer ______, and you are WRONG for thinking otherwise!
Found the Arch user
Every time one of my friends has issues with windows, I tell them to install a real OS.
When you tell people to use Linux and they have any issues or something is unclear, they'll ask you every time. Not sure how many people I could support simultaneously.
If they do that, support them in fixing it themselves, instead of just fixing it for them. Give a person a fish, feed them for a day or something...
Well, I do. In fact I've installed Linux on 4 classmate's laptops, after insisting for some time.
You are a true friend.
People do this all the time.
You don’t tell people that you use Arch in random conversations? /s
