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.

There's one thing keeping me from switching to Linux on my PC, it is the lack of support from FL Studio and a lot of VST plugins for music creation. (My experience using Wine has not been very good.) (beehaw.org)

I know how to use Wine, I wouldn’t be here talking if it was a perfect experience!

I didn't know about the bottles install scripts for quite a time. I personally don't use FL Studio, but Abletons built in plugins, which are quite many with SUIT, work fine.
