As we received new network hardware from our ISP, and inevitably are getting a new IP address again with that, I’m looking into setting up a DDNS. I’ve wanted to check out DuckDNS.

They run their (free) service on AWS EC2 instances, though, and as I am currently also trying to end my reliance on Google and Amazon, I’ve got some more digging to do. If anyone has a good, European (or heck, federated?) solution, hmu!

No heart of democracy has a two party system where both parties represent one side of the political spectrum and people have been conditioned to yell at anyone even suggesting to vote third party 😂

My personal journey:

Install random Linux distro as virtual machine or dual boot, use it until you run into something you can’t fix. Look for an alternative.

Do this a couple of times, my path was: Ubuntu, Manjaro, PopOS, Zorin, Debian, Mint. I ended up replacing windows completely with Mint. It’s nice, easy, customizable, and I can play my games on it when I need to 👍

Learning the terminal is easily done on linuxjourney.com!

+1 for mint. I’ve been using pop, zorin and manjaro, but since I’ve used mint I completely switched to daily driving it on my personal devices and my gaming PC, even going so far that I got it installed on the company laptop 👍
