Interesting. I thought all opensource devs could configure a LAMP config on DigitalOcean, deal with the DNS, and configure a virtual host. AND make is work by Googling how to do so.

Not so hu?

Yes! Of course they should know Linux ... like I know Linux ...
EVERYONE SHOULD ... LOL, but I'm biased and jaded.

Hi,

I'm a PHP developer and always thought all opensource developers had
at
least some knowledge of Linux.

Recently I watched a YouTube video that stated otherwise.  The
presenter
said it is important to know Linux which will set one apart from the

crowd.

I have been "messing"/"playing"/"working" with Linux since around
1998
or so. Learned a lot and have a lot to learn.  Thought all
opensource
developers had at least a fundamental understanding of Linux.

Is it true most do not know Linux?

And is it true that it is good, for a dev, to be able to put they
have
basic familiarity of Linux  on their Resume?

Thanks in advance!!
