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.

If you spend your time on youtube shorts or trending sure it's thrash. But I mainly watch math and science contents which is sometimes better than real courses and there is an uncountable quantity of knowledge on there
Yes just like on cable television, there's some excellent content among the vast majority of it which is absolute shit. There are millions of videos and a tiny percent of those are great
Well pick the good content then. Most social networks will have that when used by large amounts of users
