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.

Finally, the only two features I've been missing - tab groups and profiles. With all the modern internet browser stones, we'll be unstoppable!

Holy shit, it is. I'm really hoping that includes mobile, since it's the only thing keeping me using a Chromium browser

It's not gonna fix my 5900x taking off like a jet engine when I launch 100 JavaScript heavy web apps.
