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.

Wake me up when they finally bring up the UI to modern standards

They’re only waiting for some code restructuring to release 4.0, which includes UI rework.

Since that whole telemetry debacle, I have no interest in this project. Tenacity is where it is at.

I never heard of Tenacity before. I thought the most popular fork was named Auditious or something similar.
