Open source

Linux is also distributed under an open source license. Open source follows these key tenants:

1. The freedom to run the program, for any purpose.

2. The freedom to study how the program works, and change it to make it do what you wish.

3.The freedom to redistribute copies so you can help your neighbor.

4. The freedom to distribute copies of your modified versions to others.

These points are crucial to understanding the community that works together to create the Linux platform. Without a doubt, Linux is an operating system that is ?by the people, for the people?. These tenants are also a main factor in why many people choose Linux. 1.It?s about freedom and freedom of use and freedom of choice.

What is a “distribution?”

Linux has a number of different versions to suit any type of user. From new users to hard-core users, you’ll find a “flavor” of Linux to match your needs. These versions are called distributions (or, in the short form, “distros”). Nearly every distribution of Linux can be downloaded for free, burned onto disk (or USB thumb drive), and installed (on as many machines as you like).

Popular Linux distributions include:

1.LINUX MINT
2.MANJARO
3.DEBIAN
4.UBUNTU
5.ANTERGOS
6.SOLUS
7.FEDORA
8.LEMENTARY OS
9.OPENSUSE

Each distribution has a different take on the desktop. Some opt for very modern user interfaces (such as GNOME and Elementary OS’s Pantheon), whereas others stick with a more traditional desktop environment (openSUSE uses KDE).

You can check out the top 100 distributions on the Distrowatch.

And don’t think the server has been left behind. For this arena, you can turn to:

Red Hat Enterprise Linux
Ubuntu Server
Centos
SUSE Enterprise Linux

Some of the above server distributions are free (such as Ubuntu Server and CentOS) and some have an associated price (such as Red Hat Enterprise Linux and SUSE Enterprise Linux). Those with an associated price also include support.
