  • And not only did everything “just work” flawlessly, but it’s so much faster and more polished than I ever knew Linux to be!

    Congrats, you are very lucky. But try to survive couple of version upgrades before recommending it to noobs.

  • Take a look at Dart+Flutter.

    Python would be OK. Ruby is nearly dead nowadays. JS itself is used rarely, better consider using TS (however I don't recommend using them for anything other than web frontend). Go is a great language but it's unpopular in GUI development.

  • It’s just generally faster to use the terminal if you know what you’re doing.

    It's also true for other distros. Not because they have poor GUI tools but because CLI is faster than GUI if you know what you are doing.

  • Be careful if you buy a Samsung 8x0 SSD. They have long standing bugs that may cause data loss. They are worked around in the kernel, however you have to ensure that the workaround for your particular model exists in the kernel version you use.

  • Glibc preserves backward compatibility, so if you build against the oldest version you want to support, the resulting binary will work with newer ones.

    However that's definitely not what I recommend to do. Better learn packaging and build native packages for distros you are going to support. OBS can make this a bit easier (if your software is FOSS), but any modern CI will also do the job.

  • Technically, you always use a username, however in case of Gitlab that SSH username is always git. When an SSH client connects to server, it offers an authentication method. Gitlab accepts that method only if it is a publickey and the fingerprint of the offered key maps to the known Gitlab user.

  • This is a correct recommendation, however in Debian-based distros you don't need to edit configuration files manually. Just pick some of preinstalled configs. They are installed in /usr/share/fontconfig/conf.avail and symlinked to /etc/fonts/conf.d.
