    I started with Debian as a noob many years ago. Still using it. It’s good. I distro-hopped a bit in my first few years but ended up with Debian. Now I’ve a mix of Ubuntu (which in my mind is debian), Debian and raspbian.

    There’s other distros that are good too, this is just what worked for me.


  • Last evening, I deleted a file by mistake in my dhcp server. Five minutes later I had recovered the file from the previous night’s backup and was going about my merry way as if nothing happened.
    If humans can make mistakes with the files, you should consider having backups. Having backups is something you decide to engage in BEFORE you have a loss event, so that you are prepared for when humans make their mistakes.
    I am a human, and I know I make mistakes, therefore I prep even my silly infrastructure at home to defend against my sillyness.






  • The problem you are describing in this comment is a social problem, not a technological one. In the previous comment I answered, a technological problem was described, and I offered a technological solution.

    I am on the fedi, I do not proselytize to anybody that’s not on the fedi, nor do I interact outside of it. I am not fighting a battle, nor do I need to change people. There’s tons of people on the fedi that I can interact with. If people like where they are, they can continue to enjoy that, and I don’t have to bother them. I call my parents using the phone.
