A Linux distribution or distro is nothing more than a customized version of the original operating system.
Did you know that there are more than 600 Linux distributions?
The pure version of Linux is an operating system kernel, that is, the core of the system.
Linux is a free kernel, as anyone can customize it or expand it, to add new functions.
More than 10,000 programmers have participated in the development of Linux.
So, basically, an operating system is made up of different parts.
The Display Server is the intermediary which is responsible for making the hardware and the user communicate.
Collect orders through the keyboard or mouse and convert them to a language that understands the kernel.
In Linux, there are different Display Servers integrated into protocols such as X Server, Wayland, etc.
External companies only participate in very specific tasks, such as developing peripheral drivers, or programs.
Although in most cases the main difference is the GUI, or the programs and tools that are included.
Each Linux distribution has an objective, which justifies its existence.
