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.

Exactly. You are bound to learn something along the way, even if it's not for you in the long run. All it costs is your time. As you said, fuck it. Give it a whirl.
I think I will soon, thanks for the pep talk lol, I legit did need it! I think that even if the process is a little tough, it's possible that the product brings me Slack. Hell maybe I'll like the process too, who knows, learning can bring Slack sometimes too!
