Could I tempt you to boost this post, or get involved in a project to customise Linux for users with special needs/learning difficulties? I have two such children. Adults now (18). I want to do something for my boys and for people like them. 🙂❤️

I've already done a bit, using Ansible, with AlmaLinux and Ubuntu: https://github.com/robpomeroy/BrightOS

Please spread the word - I'm sure someone out there would love to get involved!

@robpomeroy Hi, I would like to contribute some lines to your project. My initial ideas after a quick scan are:
- improved detection of VM technology using Ansible Facts
- refactoring of deprecated module names (using FQCNs instead) and deprecated with_X loops
- introducing Molecule-based test suite
- maybe setup of a more restrictive firewall setup (e.g. Default DENY all incoming, allow RFC1918 subnets)

Let me know if you're interested, I'm DasFaultier on GitHub.

@DasFaultier Yes, awesome - how would you like to approach that? Become a collaborator and issue a PR? Agree with all the above. Thanks - I love your ideas.

@robpomeroy I'm not a GitHub pro, but yeah, that sounds reasonable. 🙂 I'd probably create separate issues for these things, assign them to myself and send you separate PRs so it's not just one big mess.

@DasFaultier Perfect thanks! I'm not a GitHub pro either. 🙂 My main preference (as much as I have a preference) is to use separate, short-lived branches for issues. Naming conventions like: "feature-1-do-the-thing". Sent you an invitation.

@DasFaultier BTW, Molecule has been on my "must investigate" list for YEARS. Very happy to have some assistance with testing. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

@robpomeroy Would have been the same for me if I hadn't met someone at an Ansible Meetup (thx @dschier) who taught me. You'll love it!
