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 started the video thinking "huh, that's neat I guess" and then I was more and more impressed as the video went on. This would be pretty revolutionary in how it could change your workflow. It's the kind of feature that would get me to switch from Gnome to KDE if it was only supported fully in the latter.
Very similar experience. He did a good job of building to the "Ok but why does this matter" aspect of it all
