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.

Hello all, I am brand new to fedora, so Im still learning the ropes. I've been noticing this red number 1 next to the file manager in the dock. Being a debian/ubuntu guy at heart, I don't quite know how to troubleshoot this. Hope you guys can shed some light; pic is below!
I can vouch for KDE doing it better, and in my opinion KDE does everything better except look unique like Gnome. KDE looks almost identical to Windows by default but it gives you the tools to be laid out however you want, if you want to put in the time.
I'll definitely give KDE another go. Every time I try it, I end up back at Gnome. I probably just haven't taken the time to properly configure it to my liking :)
Depending on your liking it can take a while to get it all set. Gnome has the appeal of being set in a way that is unique to Linux and being simple to get going and start working. KDE is a rabbit hole of adjusting and tweaking. But I appreciate that KDE lets me have fractional scaling and wallpaper slideshows without extensions that break with every major Gnome updates.
