The purpose of this page is to raise awareness about [[wikipedia:Operating_system|OSes]] that respect their users, and to propose them as alts for [[Microsoft Windows|Microslop Winbloats]] and [[Apple macOS|Crapintosh]]. I know there are non-*nix systems that also honor their users, but "Unices" are more standard (both in practice, and [[wikipedia:POSIX|in theory]]), so it's more pragmatic to recommend *nix.

Your distro (and most installed packages) should have docs available locally as [[wikipedia:Man_page|<code>man</code>-pages]] or in <code>/usr/share/doc/</code>. Most DEs have a "Welcome" app that auto-starts on first login, so you should be good to go.

Most DEs have a "Welcome" app that auto-starts on first login, so you should be good to go. If you encounter a compressed text file, such as <code>README.md.gz</code>, you can open it in any [[wikipedia:Terminal_pager|pager]]-like program (including text-editors, like [https://helix-editor.com/ Helix]) by running a command like <code>zcat README.md.gz | less</code>.
