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.

Personally, I find his Linux and privacy-related endeavors commendable, but I widely disregard of his political stances.

He's very edgy, I don't like his content. If I want someone to talk about tech, I'd rather they just talk about tech and not make wojack thumbnails and constantly making fun of politics.

If he only knew anything about politics, it wouldn't be so bad. He seriously applauded Elon Musk for "fighting" against media bias by "the far-left democrats". 🫠

It's because he just regurgitates all his takes from /g/ on 4chan.

For people on 4chan that is as close to developing an own personality as possible. I feel pity for them.

I agree, but the thumbnails are nice.

This, never liked his content TBH. Luke Smith is similar but Luke's Linux content is good.
