What is the difference between Ubuntu and Linux?

It seems in Ubuntu I have to type a shitload of code just to install things, is Linux like this as well? I never had to do that in Windows.

I mean, Ubuntu is Linux as well, isn't it? What's the difference? Is it basically just a version of Linux?

Why did so many people choose the 1060 (6GB and 3GB) over the 480?

I can understand needing more power with the 1070 and above, and I can understand the 1050Ti for the power consumption, but why would anybody go against AMD for the mid range?

-8GB 480 has more VRAM, 4GB version is flat out faster than the 1060 3GB
-Can be crossfired while the 1060 has SLI disabled
-Superior DX12 and Vulkan support with Async compute
-Better drivers
-Freesync over GSYNC tax
-The 480 will age better
-The 480 is cheaper
-It 4GB reference cards can be flashed to 8GB easily, even if not, getting 2000MHz on memory is super easy

I've had two 480s (Red Devil and a Reference 4GB) and I love these cards. They are basically a cooler 290X which has plenty of power to max out games in 1080P.

If you guys praise Richard Stallman and love foss and GNU/Linux, then why are you guys promoting Gentoo LINUX? It doesn't even have GNU in the name and is not a recommended distro on the GNU website.

>either foss gnu or customizability sort of foss
