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.

Btrfs cause I'm limited on storage rn. So the compression saves me good amount of space.
Is there a way to tell how much space compresses? Would that be a game changer for instatlling games I wonder.
Yes. You need to install compsize . Wouldn't call it a game changer but i only have 256gb ssd so it's a life saver for me.
Great, thank you!
