As a long time Linux user, none of the "distros" actually make sense anymore they are too saturated. Thankfully, we can create our own Linux desktop based on what we like and eventually share that with other users and maybe start our own Distro and find a community to help maintain it. Wait..

When I was a kid I made a bootable Ubuntu usb to circumvent the parental controls in windows. I've never been the same since.

[robonator]

I'd like to interject for a moment, what you are referring to as a "rabbit hole" is in fact rabbit/ground or, as I've taken to calling it, Ground+Rabbit

[thexavier]

I never knew I was so deep in the Linux culture.

[elbahek]

Series 2 random suggestions:
1. Thinkpads, 6 row vs 7 row, frankenpads, thinkpad conversions, etc
2. Laptop brands that pre-install Linux (system 76, pine, etc)
3. Openwrt and router distros
4. Right to repair with honorable mensions of john deere, pre-packed juice selling company, others
5. Why linux sucks series of presentations by Lunduke
6. Niche gadgets, like Linux sniper rifle or gentoo midi guitar

Desktop Linux reminds me of Protestant Christianity. Ideological differences between leaders caused groups to splinter off and start their own smaller groups and so on and so forth. Then you also have the independent Leaders who started their own thing out of an existing ideological framework. Seriously, that’s how the Protestant churches formed and that’s how all the different Linux distros, desktop environments, and much other FOSS projects started. Just sayin’.

Me: "I want to live forever" Friend: "You sure, you might get bored?" Me: "No way, there will always be new Linux Distros to check out!".

Terry was a legend. remember that time there was no stackoverflow

[Simte]

I didn't know I needed this iceberg in my life. Funny enough, if you have been with Linux from quite a bit you get to know a lot of this haha.

I am a Linux user since 2007. Started with Ubuntu 7.04 and went to Mint since its version 12. I've used Windows and Mac a lot. As a bioinformatician, I learned how to get from the OS what I needed. But since I know Linux (Ubuntu, Mint, Fedora, Manjaro), Mac (since Leopard) and Windows (95, 98, Me, 2000, XP, 7, 10 and 11), I can asure you: Stop the war. Operating Systems are tools, and as any other tool, it can be important for some tasks and not for others. Each has its own pros and cons. All depends on the user profile. Linux has its problems? Yes, but also do Windows and Mac... Pick one, focus on something important, create, make your contribution. Thats all that matters.

[codyrap]

All these years that I've been searching for "beginners guide to Linux" this video is what I actually needed! Thanks a ton !!!

[JacobKinsley]

Linux from scratch being "a good learning experience" just perfectly encapsulates the "yes, I'm unemployed, how can you tell?" vibe the Linux community has

[ppenun]

Missed NixOS, arguably the next contender "past Arch" in terms of DIY config, learning curve, etc., but with real merit, mainly because you can deploy your elaborate config (spanning literally *all* of your customizations) to any new system in a matter of minutes without additional effort. (Disclaimer: happy NixOS user here)

Years ago when I was 16; a teacher had introduced me to Fedora (~2002) and I loved it compared to Windows. Since I left school I have tried Arch based distros, Mint, Manjaro, RPI, Elementary, SubOS, but ultimately landed on Nobara (Fedora 36). I love Nobara! It feels really polished in terms of distros, and it was easy to migrate from Windows/macOS to it, even for music creation and gaming.

[-someone-.]

This was insane. You answered and addressed so many questions, all correlating, absolutely fantastic!
👊

[byteseb]

Great video! There are a lot of things that I didn't know.
I noticed that you mentioned my iceberg in the description of your video which is pretty cool, as I am subscribed to your channel and never expected to find me here.
We need a second part!

[susanalderson]

I started using Ubuntu in 2006, I'm still using Ubuntu in 2022, it's only a rabbit hole if you choose to make it one for yourself.

[MasterGeekMX]

the meme at 33:30 was made by me! Hah glad to know I'm now a part of the linux iceberg.

[helixiod]

This is the most concise and quality content that fully covers my linux or I'd rather say "GNU/Linux" journey so far and also gave me some idea of what I can do further.
Hats off to you.
Edit:- Thanx for the heart
Edit again:- It's gone now after editing the comment. 😭😭😭😭

[Bruces-Eclectic-World]

Man Branden, I could swear I heard PizzaLovingNerd talking there for a while. You followed his script so well you even had his cadence down to a "T".... ...😆
Awe yes, the good old Richard thing. Thanks for reminding me, <insert sarcasm here!> my day is way not better... Lol
For a collaboration video, this was a well put together video, Thanks guys!

LLAP 🖖
