I have been using some of the learning resources, specifically this one https://linuxjourney.com/. I hope the video recommendations are helpful to you but I am kicking myself for not adding “also I really hate watching videos and would prefer to read something” to my original post. I have not actually made the switch yet, I want to back up my files first. Bought a new external hard drive with enough space. It was nonfunctional. Had to send it back for a warranty replacement and am waiting on the new drive to show up. Will reply again if I remember once I actually manage to switch over.

EDIT: I haven’t forgotten this. They refunded me instead of sending a new drive, so that’s another wait period waiting for a good one made by someone else to go on sale…

!linuxupskillchallenge@programming.dev for people who that link is not working for. (I, personally, get a couldnt_find_post error.)

Sometimes I have been told my links don’t work by some other people, but they work for me logged in and logged out. Wonder if it’s that we’re using different clients, and if your link would work for the people who cannot open my link successfully.

I asked something similar a few days ago, the responses here might help you too

Reddit post’s content:

Hello all,

My team and I have been working on this platform for a while now and we wanted to share it for those who might be interested.

The goal of GIGO Dev is to offer a learning platform that addresses all the challenges we encountered when we first learned to code.

The repo consists of all parts of the platform from the lib models to the frontend code. We wanted to open source our platform for people to be able to see how it works, provide feedback on what we can do differently, or even contribute!

We continue to work on it everyday and strive to always make it better.

Here is the link to the repo: https://github.com/Gage-Technologies/gigo.dev and here is the link to the actual platform: https://www.gigo.dev/

I figured it would look more professional, and it would also let me separate the contributions I made with my more anonymous GitHub out—not too sure how closely they investigate your previous contributions and how good your code was.

I am guessing this was not a good choice, and I should have just continued using my more anonymous GitHub, or made the account as JSmith instead of JaneSmith.

YouTube page load is 5x slower in Firefox and Edge than in Chrome because YouTube’s Polymer redesign relies on the deprecated Shadow DOM v0 API only implemented in Chrome. You can restore YouTube’s faster pre-Polymer design with this Firefox extension: https://t.co/F5uEn3iMLR

According to that article,

Google Chrome ads started appearing next to Firefox search terms. Gmail & [Google] Docs started to experience selective performance issues and bugs on Firefox. Demo sites would falsely block Firefox as ‘incompatible’

while Firefox was still a Google search partner.

EDIT: Did not realize how long ago this post was made, whoops.

I love and use Obsidian, but a FOSS alternative to it is SilverBullet.md.

I could see “join lemmy” and “join kbin” actually being useful too.

Really disappointed by all the “fuck Spez” instead of “join Lemmy,” you’d think advertising a competitor would be much more hurtful to Reddit…
