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.

What app is that GUI from?
This screenshot is from the Flathub website. The only good GUI for Flatpaks...
Ain't that the truth. I don't know why KDE Discover is so sluggish when it comes to Flatpak, it takes me like 10+ seconds to load the landing page and see the popular apps.
Likewise with Gnome in my experience. I've been using the CLI but am now realizing I might be missing out on some important information by doing that
It's definitely faster than it used to be. But yeah, searching for app updates is still more sluggish than through the terminal, at least on Fedora Workstation.
