If anyone wants to give an ELI5 or a link to a video that ELI5 I'd be incredibly thankful

I swear that all the stuff I find is like super in depth technical stuff that just loses me in no time flat

Since the 80’s, Linux has been using a display server called the X Window System

This is, of course, not true, given that Linux did not yet exist in the 1980s.

Unix-like systems that predate Linux did already use it in the 1980s.

That’s an important point for the youngsters here who think Linux was always a thing: x11 far predates Linux

Are you know what predates x11? Love and compassion

Thank you for coming to my Ted talk
