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 can't stay productive with 20 tabs or applications open. I waste time searching. I feel drained if I'm working on a tough job and need something that is hidden. Maybe it's on another desktop. Maybe it's open in another instance. Maybe it's not even open. Not for me.

I feel you, and agree with most of it.... buuutttt I think it's even more frustrating to know you had a good reference that was closed and then spent a stupid amount of time to find again.

Everyone has their own workflow, whatever works.
