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.

Lmao.
I hardly use Windows (I use Arch btw), so Notepad isn't that big of an issue.
I don't understand. Is the default text editor on Arch (btw) worse than Notepad? O_O
Nah, im just playing around with you. I don't use Arch btw... I use Kde Neon. Anyway, what I was trying to say is that I hardly ever use Windows, so as a result I barely use Notepad. Nothing wrong with Notepad... its just basic compared to Kate or xed.
Fair enough.
