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.

There are definitely a of of options, but I think thats a good thing in this case. I've seen quite a few people mention Pop_OS. I'm leaning towards giving that a shot and seeing how I like it. Thank you for the input :).
I'm really excited about where Pop! is going, and I plan to make it my next os. I've been using Ubuntu for a while now.
Well it's the one I'm testing. Spun up a vm just to take a look. Still trying to wrap my head around some stuff but overall I like it. It seems mostly intuitive and the ui is easy on the eyes.
