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.

Wezterm. I started out on konsole, and was happy with it, but then I started using zellij as my terminal multiplexer. Although zellij allows you to configure what command copies and pastes text, copy/paste on wayland and windows only works by default with wezterm. It gives me consistency across multiple DEs/OSes, with minimal configuration, which is good because I was setting up development environments for many people, with many configurations
