#Linux #Mushrooms #Maritime #Wonder

Hello,
I'm an amateur Linux fan boy and seasonal forager. I'm a professional merchant mariner and a full time wonderer (physically/mentally/spiritually).

I love being immersed in a good book but rarely find the time to read. I sometimes play computer games and I enjoy almost all forms of music (really, there's very little music I can't find some level of appreciation for, test me).

I am English residing in Finland.

I strive toward #LifeLongLearning

@hl0dwig

I'm no expert so take my advice with a dose of salt.
Consider Fedora. I've found it to be more stable and have more frequent updates. If you really want to get deep, check out the Arco Linux learning path, but I wouldn't recommend it as a starting point.

I am something of a FOSS evangelist but I am not and absolutist. I use Icedrive for cloud storage.

For mobile consider Lineage OS or Graphene OS, Linux mobile isn't quite ready imo.

So, some options 😁
Welcome to the rabbit hole.

I was hard-core solus for two years after I got sick of Ubuntu. I cannot fault the stability of solus, but the winds of change are in the air and I am looking arch-ways for the challenge. Though stability is something I quite enjoy so i'm considering fedora for my daily driver and arch (or more specifically Arco to begin with) on my older laptop.

P.S. the first few comments here had me laughing πŸ˜†

@djamilaknopf woah you made this from scratch!? It looks so legit! Kudos!
@natty the memes are extensive.
@natty I suspect the culture has a lot to do with it. Finns do not like being within five meters of another human.
@natty having now researched long covid I am sorry that you or anyone has had to endure that. I had covid quite briefly once (vaxed) so I guess I got lucky. It seems long covid is quite uncommon here in Finland, at least this was the first I heard of it. Thank you for enlightening me πŸ™‚
@natty forgive my ignorance but for what? to prolong the matter?
I will admit I am quite ignorant to the wider global situation but here in Finland the government has said that masks are no longer necessary as the threat level of the current strains is just on par with your average flu.
@openculture I clicked for the comments... I was not disappointed 🀣
@JayRayner tips in Finland are generally (though not always) not a thing. When I first moved to Finland I tried tipping a few times and the waiter looked at me in a puzzled way and told me I forgot to take my money. But that comes with the territory of a union agreement for restaurant staff pay.
