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.

I had to wait a little for my favorite widgets to get updated to 6, now I'm good.
I have been using the Wayland session for a while (I was on for months on 5), and it solved so many multi-monitor woes it has been worth the switch. So far my only complaint is that remote access solutions are rather limited on Plasma, with Sunshine and Moonlight being the only consistently working solution, as Krfb (VNC) crashes randomly, doesn't handle modifier keys well and forces you to click "OK" on a dialog every startup, thus making it useless for unattended access (Plasma issue).

Other than remote access, no complaints.
