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.

not sure about manual but on ArchLinux and NixOS, TRIM can be automatically handled with BTRFS options:discard=async:

  • Enables discarding of freed file blocks in large chunks before queuing for TRIM.

not sure if this helps but I'll be open sourcing my NixOS build and configuration.nix files in a bit(after school schedule stablizes)
