    It has ‘2’ in its name, but its version is ‘1.4.0’?

      In general it is -as mentioned by @[email protected] an immutable, Debian based distribution with GNOME. It uses a quiet interesting system called ABRoot for doing updates. I use it on one of my spare machines now since they did the switch from Ubuntu base to Debian and honestly i like it.

        Does it use an LTS kernel like Debian or is it more like Ubuntu/Fedora?

          It’s Debian Sid based so I assume you find the Kernel used therein in VanillaOS

            Ah thanks. Now I remember why I never used VanillaOS previously. I’ve been keeping my eye on bluefin-LTS though. Looks like a really interesting project. CentOS Stream based immutable distribution.

      It’s an immutable distro that leverages containers to allow you to install packages from different distros. Further, it provides friendly tools and guis to make this easier than it would otherwise be

        I might actually, I have someone dropping by a spare laptop they don’t want in a few weeks and I was going to toss xubuntu on it kind of by default, but maybe not.

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.
