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.

This looks nice, but today I just found out about nushell which seems to do it all.
My main gripe with nushell is that you can't select rows that contain empty fields. As in not NULL but straight up don't exist, but this is very common for tools that output json. E.g. you use
ip awith json output and since you have interfaces with different properties, the fields are empty for some interfaces and working with these tables is a PITAWeird they wouldn't offer a "get value with key or NULL" function
