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.

Is it still gonna be super slow because you can't reclock or is that fixed now?
that depends on the driver that directly talks to the gpu. these cards are still cryptographically locked down to stay on low clocks when it is not driven by the official driver
ELI15?
the usual, nvidia being a dick made it hard to properly run vulkan on their older cards using linux, then mesa3d went like "you know what? we'll do it ourselves" and now we're here.
A new iteration of open-source drivers for NVIDIA cards which aims to work better and be more feature-complete. Original announcement post here which explains a bit better.
