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.

You are both correct. I also read my RSS feeds in Emacs (which includes my YouTube subscriptions), manage my knowledge database with org-roam, use Mastodon on it, and sometimes chat on IRC or matrix with Emacs.

I use kbin rather then lemmy, and the kbin API isn't complete, but looks like there's lemmy support in:
Admire the Emacs spirit, but vim has been imprinted on my mind for decades. =)
