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 have been using Void for few years now. For me the best thing is that you can learn how startup/services work and how to build your own packages in just few days. This makes me feel very much in control of the system.
They don't have a wiki page, it has been deprecated it to make room and focus for official documentation (clickable for your convenience).
