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.

The readme states:
"This repo also serves as an updated version of the original neofetch since the upstream dylanaraps/neofetch doesn't seem to be maintained anymore (as of Oct 27, 2023, the original repo hasn't merged a pull request for almost 2 years). If you only want to use the updated neofetch without pride flags, you can use the neofetch script from this repo. To prevent command name conflict, I call it neowofetch :)"
But its essentially an LGBTQ version and not a "maintained version of neofetch"
Well yes obviously but it does serve a purpose as a maintained fork, that's why I included that. I expect a normal fork will be made soon because of this news.
