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.

My nearest way is using my steam controller but isn't comfy to navigate Netflix or other streaming websites.

Can agree. My $1800 TV has the slowest interface ever and only 8GB of storage space, most of it being taken up by the OS. It's laggy as hell and a major pain in the ass to navigate cause of it. It's like using a $50 Android phone that keeps closing the app you're using cause it has 512MB of RAM.
