Nano is objectively the most beginner friendly of the bunch.

You and I have a very different ideas about what clickbait is.

Got into linux on the server side before I seriously looked at the desktop side. Run a mix of Ubuntu, Debian and what used to be CentOS but is now Almalinux in this space.

On the desktop started fiddeling with Ubuntu at first, but first distro I actually used was Mint. Tested a lot of them over the year, can’t bothered to list them.

Mainly just use Fedora (KDE).

Everybody did think becoming a developer is where it was at, so a lot of people did, now these people looking at an ever tightening job market (even before AI) with LLM’s possibility annihilating the need for their expertise entirely at some point.

At least maybe people will stop telling other people what to do. It’s obvious we don’t know what is relevant next week, much less in 10 years.

All these people that are now told to school themselves for manual labour are being set up to run into the same thing. Especially when those chineese bots inevitably also escape the gadget level.

There are no “AI safe” jobs. Even if it can’t do your job (yet) all the people that are made redundant and need new work will be flooding remaining markets.
