Good point. This was the only thing that stood out to me as “really?”.

Although I’d also think that’s the only modern IDE focused on PHP, isn’t it?

And I already have the next bubble ready: https://youtu.be/wSHmygPQukQ

It could serve both as an explanation of concepts and references to the sources, just like Wikipedia. Ex: it could have pages about Kindle, about Chrome etc. detailing the privacy problems, the timeline of news about them and so on…

Sure it would be a lot of work to have a lot of information, but if it’s something other people can help contribute it could actually grow as a knowledge repository on this subject.

This has quite a lot of links already. I feel like it would be very useful to make some sort of “Wiki” about this.

Also… the actual good stuff has a good chance of not being free, or not being on YouTube—it’s just the reality of our world.

When you look for YouTube videos of random people, you can get anything, from good programmers to horrible ones. You can’t really require quality from strangers posting stuff for fun.

I also have a M2 Mac Mini. It’s my favorite computer among all I ever had so far. Being able to run Windows ARM on a VM and install anything I want if I ever need it is priceless. And I still keep Ubuntu and Arch installed on a VM just to play with them sometimes.

Brands want to push their own style on people, to make themselves recognizable, and to push their ideas about UX to their users

That’s not a universal behavior though. There’s so many utilities and simpler apps made by indie developers or smaller companies that don’t care about this.

Yeah, saying “most GitHub users can’t live without a commercial entity” is such a nonsense. GitHub is successful while it works well. The moment it doesn’t, there will be other services.

At the same time, I feel like nowadays there's less forums or places people can ask help with, although today ChatGPT can be a good help with newbie questions.

You’re right, but that’s not the point. The other poster said it’s a skill issue. Sure, if the person can’t run commands in a terminal or doesn’t know what’s an executable that’s a skill issue.

Getting stuck because the game is having weird glitches that show off once in a while and you need classes on computer graphics to debug isn’t skill issues imo. Otherwise are all gonna establish that Linux isn’t for non programmers then?

Another option is to have enough people in the company interested in using that to justify it.

In my company (a large bank) Linux is now being rolled out to selected people as test because there was enough interest from a lot of the backend crowd.
