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.

Bruh COSMIC is looking unbelievable. I can't wait to see it in action. Is it still on track for 1.0 before the end of the year?

This year? No. We are still working on achieving our Alpha 1 milestone.

Ah, I must have misunderstood. At any rate, y'all are doing great and I can't wait for the final product.
