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.

To be fair here, Greece has much less population than India 🙂

Oh my bad, I misunderstood the concept of percentage.

To put it in right context (relying on Wiki data for year 2021):

Current population of Greece: 10,482,487 (~10.5 Million)

Current population of India: 1,210,854,977 (~1.2 Billion)
