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.

Very nice icon, would you consider contributing it to font-logos project (where a lot of FOSS projects logos are, including Tux) that is used on nerd-fonts so people can use it on their terminals? Nice to see SolveSpace being used for it. Edit: Fix typo.
oh yea that would be cool, let me see if i can do it
@hasecilu@lemm.ee I will wait for the license issue to resolve, seems better?
@sixdripb@lemmy.world Sure no problem, I'm still not 100% how to proceed, I hope in any case it get resolved before new NF release.
aw I missed the release. maybe we can get it in for the fall release. ( personally I would prefer to get it in under the right license, than in a new one or in a grey-area). thanks for reaching out back then, it would be crazy to me if people had access to this icon in neovim etc.
I'm still figuring out some things and also have been busy, eventually should be done.
no problem at all, I will try to get it in whenever it is solved, I’m in no hurry :) thx
