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.

Hahaha, thank you. In windows that would be even more efficient, since a few letters will be enough to identify something unique. Win, f, i, enter
The same is true in Linux, but it’s harder to get the joke with “OS,f,i,enter”
It's literally the same with most Linux's DEs. And even in Window Managers when using dmenu or rofi.
Good. Why did he then fell the need for absurd key combos?
Out-of-the-box Cinnamon & Gnome moment
