You will know everything you should know about linux once you have installed
gentoo once without assistance (but documentaton is OK), and then compiled
chromium a single time. The compiling chromium part is the most important
lesson.

You can always set one up for yourself! Can be pretty painful to set up, but
there are wizards and tutorials. Just need a VPS server, I think $3-5 per
month. I installed debian on mine with an encrypted drive, so not even the host
of the physical server can get in there without first keylogging
I am now more-seriously considering trying to daily drive gentoo on one of my
machines because I hear binaries are becoming more available in their repos.
The main benefit I see is better control over software versioning. I have been
using arch and sometimes debian for a few years, but it has a
I've been trying to set up NextCloud for private use on my personal
VPS/website, but am experiencing difficulty . There are a lot of features which
require special extensions or configuration, which can vary by distribution.
Plus I'm using nginx instead of apache and there is much less documenta
Do you truly need proprietary drivers? That card is one of the best supported
by open source software. So I would just install mesa, which should be easily
installed from your distro's package manager, if it's not installed already.
Assuming you do need proprietary, maybe try a reboot if you hav
I also don't think I made it clear that mesa is probably better than the
proprietary AMD drivers on linux. The same is untrue on NVIDIA.

It's been years since I used it, but I found KDE Neon to be less buggy than
Kubuntu. KDE is a nice desktop, I would recommend.

I am curious if anyone has a more general solution to PPAs on debian. It is my
understanding that PPAs are not something you can in general use on debian,
only ubuntu derivatives. I believe many debian people nowadays opt to use
flatpak, docker, and appimage for their more user-facing softwares.
I have had a hard time getting nextcloud set up properly on my machine for
whatever reason, but I am also an `rsync -vrute 'ssh -p XXX'` enjoyer. Possibly
flatpak, appimage, or something may make that nextcloud setup easier.
I haven't used this in a while, but I think there's a program called fi
I think most HP and Brother brand devices have pretty good support built into
the kernel. But possibly you could look up your device and see if they package
a proprietary driver for linux. I think you may have to add the "printer" while
declaring a particular driver. Cups has a CLI command to do
