Falcon, to privacy in Wireguard server recommendations

AirVPN because it supports port forwarding.

Falcon, to linux in Fedora, Arch, or EndeavourOS?

I absolutely love void. Second to that I would say endeavour, it’s just arch with zfs, a wm and an installer.

If you’re interested in learning more try , I use oddlama’s installer. With binary packages, distrobox and flatpak, the small amount of compile time is a much smaller issue.

Alternatively, if you’re thinking about Fedora maybe play with Silverblue, it forces you to learn a bit of containerisation which is handy

Falcon, to linux in Looking to make the switch

Avoid Flatpaks for some things, eg eMacs, vscode etc

Look into distrobox

This is perfectly fixable, but take the win and leave well enough alone imo.

If you’re on ext4, you could also simply refind.

Falcon, to linux in Linux in the corporate space

It’s much the same where I come from.

The high quality institutions have Linux in their labs (either a separate lab or dual boot) and a server with say access for training ML models etc.

The dodgy ones have only Windows with no software and require students to buy a second laptop and install Linux. If they don’t the students fail. Those tests were done in handwriting but they are still an accredited university :(

Falcon, to lemmyshitpost in Dangerous moment on the road

Could you share the link to some of your driving videos?

I like cars and I’d love to see your stuff.

Falcon, to linux in Is it actually dangerous to run Firefox as root?

I have no clue how dangerous running Firefox as root is, but it begs the question…why would you do that?

Create a user account for managing things and create a separate user for each service and/or containers.

For managing things use tmux with ssh, if you want to manage files etc. just use ranger/lf/mc. One can also mount the file system with sshfs.

Yeah there’s a bit of scope to review what op is doing here.

Why is there even a DE on a server if it’s headless. If it’s not headless why not write up some Dockerfiles and manage it from a non-root account?

Are the services running as root?

Also, is it being accessed via wireguard/ovpn? It would be unwise to run a server as root with an open port.

Falcon, to linux in New Linux user here. Is this really how I'm supposed to install apps on Linux?

The Deb and ppa will have the same content, the ppa is just automatic, assuming the owner maintains it.
