Does free memory exist on linux?..

Answer / Saumitra Sajwan

"In Linux, the term 'free memory' is often misleading as it does not refer to truly free memory. Instead, it represents the amount of unused RAM that can quickly be allocated for new processes or data. Linux manages memory actively, so while there might not be any 'free memory', it efficiently allocates and deallocates memory according to system needs."
