For example, I’m using Debian, and I think we could learn a thing or two from Mint about how to make it “friendlier” for new users. I often see Mint recommended to new users, but rarely Debian, which has a goal to be “the universal operating system”.
I also think we could learn website design from… looks at notes …everyone else.

Downvote because i like the arch wiki very much and it was beginner friendly enough for me, tho (installed arch as a noob recently)

(Well I did not really downvote to be honest, but if I did, that would be the reason)

Hm, weird. I tried following to wiki to fix some Bluetooth issues I had. It didn’t fix my issue and on top of that it’s all over the place.

Man, I feel like some people treat the wiki as a hecking Bible omg…

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.
