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.

Basically everything being said here. They don't offer the source code of quite a few of their apps, they have very delirious ideas about what is identifiable information, they are trying to jump into the AI bandwagon, they don't seem to have a serious plan to keep financing all the things they are doing, the dude wants to do some filtering of news based on "biased" "unbiased", doesn't listen to critique from users, etc.
