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.

Your estimates are for sure low.

You will never hear from most people. Of the people that speak up, most will do it via some channel that you will never encounter.

I have been using Thunar for many years by the way, and not just on XFCE. Thank you so much for everything you have done.

I have used Thunar for a long time. You have never heard from me.
