This is a lot to take in; it’s basically an overview of all the interesting features of Nix. When starting out, you don’t need this kind of in-depth knowledge. I personally gathered most of what was covered here in over 6-12months of using it and I did just fine.
It might still not be for you but don’t take this as the reference point.
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.
