@itsfoss aligns with the values i believe and espouse - open and free flow of knowledge and ideas, creative commons, somewhat a just process,

Technically competent, supported despite mainstream industry shenanigans

And now so effective and good to use with hardky much headache in file compatibility, or significant hardware incompatibility

And fun, absolutely fun (sometimes headachy) but at the end of the day i am technically better (and hopefully a better person) because i use linux.
