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've read before that Pulse really had a difficult challenge, since it had to really resolve a lot of hardware vendor quirks that essentially would never be resolved. PipeWire gets the advantage of not having those early growing pains, because Pulse went through them. I'm not involved with the development of either to really know one way or another the truth behind that story.
Sounds reasonable to me. The day only has so much hours. Software engineering is always a story of trade-offs, isn't it?
