GNU/Linux
Linux or GNU/Linux is a Unix-like OS (or family of) for computers.
The Linux kernel (the basis of the operating system) is free software, meaning everyone has the freedom to use it, see how it works, change it, or share it.
There is a lot of software for Linux and—like Linux itself—a lot of the software for Linux is free software. This is one reason why many people like to use Linux.

Personally I use Linux with NixOS distributions.
One of Unix/Linux important idea is everything is a file, with some exceptions (semaphores, processes and threads).
