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.

Hello, recently joined after 14 years on reddit, not sure if anyone would recognise me but I was mildly active in Linux subreddits, especially /r/linuxaudio.

Is there any interest in creating a similar community here? I have started getting back into making music on Linux after a few years where my job took over my life.

IMO for now, post everything on this community itself as it is not that active. We can slowly diversify into niches but we first need to improve interaction.
