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 honestly hope it does well, the AUR (and also, with that, the chaotic-AUR repo) is the main reason I always stick with Arch and Arch-based distros.
same, I considered switching to openSUSE but a lot of the software I use would have to be compiled for it and while doable it would be a pain compared to just installing and updating from the AUR.
