  • Thanks for the links. Documentation is definitely a problem. They’d have to be open to feedback on documentation. Threads on documentation improvement are often met with “it exists, what more do you want?” even if the feedback is “this and this is missing” 🤷

    Anyway, I’ll check out the links and try to set something up. My usage of radicle is definitely what it could be because of the lack of notifications. I literally fire and forget my repos, patches and so on, because I haven’t found an easy way to be made aware of responses or incoming patches.


  • My bad then. I’m sorry I thought you were a shill, but those do come through here pretty often to dump their winblow and crApple dung.

    As I said in another response, security is difficult to marry with convenience. You can see it on mobile operating systems where a flashlight app asks for network and storage permissions, and users just accept because they can’t be bothered with even reading it.

    I too recognise that there is a lot of room to improve, but I’m hopeful that with more attention, linux will become more secure. There will be more brainpower and money flowing into it.


  • Linux is used in security contexts. What do you think Kali Linux is for? There’s a linux distro that is literally a hypervisor to separate everything into VMs (Qubes). Fedora allows you to activate more security options like SELinux (which is also one way Android achieves more security BTW). And I could go on, but it seems you chose to be ignorant before making the claim linux was insecure.

    Linux distros babe many flavors and eachallows a different focus.
