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.

In that case, you may have also not yet heard of Parabola.
Trisquel is based on Ubuntu, Parabola does the same, but on the basis of Arch.
Props go out to Parabola (CLI edition) for being the first system running on my 64MB 2003 laptop.
Funny you post this now, because I actually installed Trisquel on my laptop a few days ago. :) And I swear it’s not an ideological claim but it’s genuinely the best, snappiest and most user friendly distribution I have ever used.
I used Trisquel from 2010 to 2014. It worked well enough for me. I switched to Debian because I wanted more up-to-date packages and Trisquel had switched to an LTS-only release cycle. I still have Trisquel on a server.
It was the first 100% free/libre distro that I installed. It’s the most user-friendly of all those recommended by the FSF.
Already installed it twice, love it. It satisfied my ideological purist itch, while being really user-friendly for someone lacking experience in Linux !
