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.

Nice, what new features does it have? Since proton is based off wine does that mean it will benefit proton as well?

The article highlights some of the bigger upgrades include finalized PE format conversion, upgraded "Windows-like" WoW64 mode plus better Vulkan support. But Wine updating will still require Proton to make changes before these features are included I believe
