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.

I wrote a blog post about my experience with the Minisforum V3 AMD Tablet, focusing on how Linux/Fedora/KDE works on this device and how Linux performs on the tablet devices.

That looks like such a cool device! I've been wondering what to replace my 2017 macbook with in the next few years and it's nice to see more options to consider. Maybe it won't be a refurbished ThinkPad.
