I recommend installing a Linux distribution that requires a hands-in approach like Gentoo or Linux from scratch. If you don’t have an extra computer you can do it on a virtual machine on the computer you do have.

The process will require you to use the various incantations and rituals of using the terminal. As you do so, learn what they do by googling them or using their man page.

For more practice, write a shell script or otherwise choose a task you want to do using the terminal like browsing through your files or searching for a file whose name matches a pattern and so on.

You can’t degoogle without using a ROM that degoogles. Google has built itself into the Android operating system by default and replacing it is non-trivial, like using a ROM with microG.

As another commenter mentioned, though, you can partially degoogle in other ways.

90% of the time, the manager is just reproducing what they think they’re supposed to be doing regardless of whether it helps anything.

See: the fact that 90% of the time these meetings will not have an agenda.

I hadn’t heard of radicle. I like that forgejo has CI

Applies to both.

Gentoo is good for learning. It’s not really a privacy or security-focused distribution per se. It promotes you being comfortable with the command line, configuration files, networking, unix-ie things, and of course compiling programs. If you’re tired of the compiling there is basically no downside to switching to Arch as a “one step up” distribution.

This article is also a form of advertisement and self-promotion, though it does have a point about the proliferation of absolute garbage “review” and “ranking” pages you get whenever you try to figure out which doodad to chuck money at.

User experience with all software is pretty shit and Linux is no exception

Most of them. They try to “jumpstart” their prodigy by gathering “training” data by employing remote workers that they will massively underpay. They claim that they’ll transition to pure AI over time. They… just kinda don’t, lol.

The main question I would have is why use it instead of protobuf? Having native support for binary values aside.

Different distros are better for different things. For example, some require give you more control over the OS but are more difficult to learn, or require learning more things at once. Others will be easier to try out but may make choices on your behalf that you don’t like - or distribute software in ways you don’t like.

Linux from Scratch will have a fairly steep learning curve. Nothing wrong with that, but you’d want to prepare yourself to be cool with things breaking or not making sense for a while.

Puppy Linux is minimalist, which is something people usually only want after they’ve tried out something else that’s not minimalist. I would recommend trying out something more general-purpose and try out different desktop environments and applications first.

Relatable

My counter: let’s throw Java into a pit

Regrettably, it does do that

You’re not at scale unless you’re deploying OpenStack to run a WordPress site.

Surely this other monopoly will save us
