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.

On a seperate note, I've recently started using GNOME. I like it, but it's really difficult to find a terminal emulator that matches the theming as far as title bar and window decorations go (Im not a fan of the GNOME console, it's not as easily customisable as I'd like). They've all had white title bars which clash with my dark theming. The only one I've found that works nicely is Black Box, which I have been enjoying, but I can't figure out how to blur the background (maybe I do this through the compositor prefs? I've tried setting it in blur my shell but it doesn't seem to work), so i'd like more suggestions
I've tried Kitty and Alacritty, as those are the ones I've used in the past, along with Konsole, but that seems sacrilegious so I haven't tried it with GNOME.
I'll come back and post pics of my Konsole setup on my main rig in the spirit of the post once I get home :) I use fish and custom theming
I don't know enough about titlebars on gnome to understand where your white issue is coming from, but one other to try is Wezterm.
Wezterm looks promising, I'll give it a shot when I get home 👍👍
