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.

trinity because it's lighter than almost everything else while having more features than almost everything else
Last update 27th Oct 2024? Trinity is still kicking around? I have so many questions...
Will there be Wayland support?
What is the purpose of it?
Does it even use later versions of Qt?
How lightweight is it (how much RAM and CPU does it use on a cold boot?)?
