A link to the video on PeerTube through Tilvids: https://tilvids.com/w/e4fxGdZgmgZeHVUrPLunUt

It makes me feel so nostalgic.

I still remember trying something alien called Linux on an old Dell Laptop (and also on my Playstation 3) I had inherited from my dad’s company. It was good that everything worked out of the box because I had not technical knowledge. I can’t know for sure but I guess it was a version of Ubuntu between 6.XX and 8.XX.

Then it was Linux all the time, until having a Windows dual boot in the mid-2010 before switching back to Linux fully at the beginning of the 2020’s.

No more Ubuntu though since I fell in love with Fedora.

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.
