Linux

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.

Using it to type this comment. Looks great and can see the potential.

One thing, when typing comments, can we have shortcuts to do links/quotes etc. Unless you know the markdown syntax you are stuck.

All in all. Good stuff

Maybe it is a new feature but I am also typing this comment with it and I can select from quite a few markdown options

How does it deal with instances on 0.18 vs 0.17? Can it do both?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Both Work for me

I think this whole situation is going to cause a GPLv4. I hope it does so that this shit can't be pulled on a technicality.
