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.

Perhaps look at what they are saying? I daily drive Endeavour and have no problems with it

Same. Every problem I’ve had with it, I’ve caused…and have been able to fix from the live image. EndeavourOS is definitely my favorite at this time.

Oh I did. Permissions, things it couldn't find, other errorS...From default install. No thanks, no time to fix stuff that other distros had clean installs with.
