Description:
I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/LInux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
To address some common comments:
1) I know it's hard to read the text at the 30 second mark. I was still learning to edit when making this video
2) "what OS/distro is ______?" The installer is for fedora, the next one is a bunch of rices. This video was made in kdenlive on Ubuntu. Don't confuse the Distro for the window manager.
3) It's very cool that you use arch btw
4) "I want to use Linux but _____" That's okay! As long as you have an enjoyable and productive computing experience that's what matters.
5) But GAMES! The only games that I can't run are one that's require kernel level anticheat. Nothing, especially a game, requires that level of access.
