      Not surprising considering just how much India is running on old hardware. I wouldn’t be surprised if a big chunk of laptops there don’t even support win11.

      That is surprising perhaps govts push for adoption in Kerala and elsewhere is the reason.

            Wow, OK. I half expected a linux distro called Kerala. Hopefully this stance spreads!

                That’s how licenses work. They protect every single word and if somebody uses that word henceforth, they breach the license.

      I saw lot of folks in college switch to Linux, especially Ubuntu back in the day. It was considered synonymous with coding here. There was a time I could recognize that Ubuntu’s Unity DE from anywhere before it was killed(and resurrected again recently).

        Unity was my first desktop, around the 2010s. Around 2020, I came back to Linux with the intention to ditch Windows forever.

          I switched completely to Linux somewhere around 2016, I guess. I gave Windows 11 a spin recently but it didn’t leave too good of an impression.

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.
