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 am not exactly convinced of this:

The GiHub repo is empty (only a Readme and LICENSE) and I can not read the source code
Apparently it is just an electron wrapper, so I would not call this native
Looks like it just uses https://github.com/nativefier/nativefier, so there probably really is no added value to just using your browser

I'll be honest I just saw the post over on reddit nd decided to post it here, my bad for not checking it first but I didn't thought about it at the time.
