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.

Is it pronounced "antics" or "antiques"?
Searched but can't find it in their FAQs :) They work together with MX Linux, so personally I'd go for Anti Ex and Em Ex Linnuks.
If they are anti X why dont they use Wayland then.
😀 Yeah right, maybe it should indeed by pronounced like something like antique /j
Everyone I've heard mention it pronounces it as antics so I guess that's the right one
Just wondering because "antiques" seems fitting given the target hardware.
