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.

I use Trinity DE from Q4OS. It's very light, so it's good for older pcs or laptops. It fits me very well because I want something that doesn't eat my computer resources away. But the downside is that it's not very customizable as other DE. Well, maybe not yet. If you prefer performance over looks, I think it can be a good choice for you.

You know if can it be installed on Fedora 33?

I'm not sure what you're asking about. Q4OS is based on Debian 10.
