Linux

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I know what you mean, but I immediately heard it different. It's something we should be asking daily, just to make sure they have what they need. Are trans women okay? Are trans men okay? What do you need? I have a sympathetic ear and bourbon; how can I help?

She is absolutely great, but she doesn't talk about Linux, does she ?

Her videos are definitely solid, and she seems knowledgeable. HOWEVER, she 100% consumed the Technology Connection guy's personality and mannerisms Kirby style.

Speaking of VeronicaExplains: How VeronicaExplains Records Videos, ft. VeronicaExplains (not the best sound quality.)

While LaurieWired isn't a linux youtuber she does use it here and there, and her content is in general very interesting reverse engineering stuff. And I like the Serial Experiments Lain theming she uses, complete with Copland OS in this video, but also other old late 90s early 00s OS'es.
Jill from Destination Linux has already been mentioned, and then the only other linux woman youtuber (edit: I know of) is probably Wendy from Linux Out Loud..

Cyb3rMaddy does more cyber security content, but she has a fair bit of Linux content too, same with LaurieWired.

VeronicaExplains is my favorite for pure Linux content.

[–] abrer@lemmy.one 36 points 3 days ago

Veronica explains has cool content

Tracketpacer is a network engineer

And she has a cute baby switch. The switch knows nothing. Not even ABCs. Just knows to be little and nap.

Jill is such an awesome person and content creator.

[–] jjlinux@lemmy.ml 3 points 3 days ago

She's an absolute darling, and super smart and knowledgeable.
