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.

Improve security by enabling some of the high level systemd security hardening settings that isolate and sandbox default system services.

Fedora services will get a significant security boost by default by avoiding or mitigating any unknown security vulnerabilities in default system services.

Actually, I use systemd because it just works for me and operating systems aren't my hobby. Linux is my job, and things that work well cause less overtime for me.

I'm very excited for Debian 13 :)
