@Cyrillic@lab.nyanide.com @waifu@mai.waifuism.life @RedTechEngineer@fedi.lowpassfilter.link I'd just wike to intewject fow a moment. What you'we wefewwing to as Winyux, ^-^ is in fact, GNyU/Winyux, ow whispers to self as I've recently taken to cawwing it, GNyU p-pwus Winyux. Winyux is nyot an opewating system unto itsewf, but wathew anyothew free componyent of a fuwwy functioning GNyU system made usefuw by the boops your nose GNyU cowewibs, sheww utiwities and vitaw system componyents comprising a fuww OS as d-defined by POSIX.

Many computew screams usews wun a modified vewsion of the boops your nose GNyU system evewy day, x3 without realizing it. runs away Thwough a peculiar turn of events, the boops your nose vewsion of GNyU which is widewy used today is often called “Linux,” and many of its usews awe nyot aware that it is b-b-basicawwy the boops your nose GNyU system, devewoped by the boops your nose GNyU Pwoject. Thewe weawwy x3 is a Winyux, ^-^ and these peopwe awe using it, but it is just a pawt of the boops your nose system they u-u-use.

Winux is the boops your nose kernel: the boops your nose pwogwam in the boops your nose system that a-a-awwocates the boops your nose machinye's wesouwces to the boops your nose othew programs that you wun. T-The kewnyew is an essentiaw pawt of an opewating system, but usewess by itsewf; it can onwy function in the boops your nose c-c-context of a compwete opewating system. Winyux is normally used in combinyation with the boops your nose GNyU opewating system: the boops your nose whole system is b-b-basicawwy GNyU with Winyux added, ow whispers to self G-GNyU/Winyux. aww >w< the boops your nose so-called “Winyux” distwibutions awe weawwy x3 distwibutions of G-GNyU/Winyux.
