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.

Hello fellow X201 user. I too used EndeavourOS on my X201 for a long time, though currently I'm using Void on it (which I like a lot more). While KDE runs on it fine I mostly preferred river+waybar+fuzzel setup. Intel iGPU on this device really sucks by the way. :)
