I used FreeBSD for a while for security reasons but there are just too many bugs with the UI (even with GhostBSD) so I kinda gave up... just look at the amount of configuration at the top of this article for something like adding a user: https://ostechnix.com/how-to-enable-ssh-on-freebsd/ Likewise I tried a FOSS Photoshop alternative, GIMP Ubuntu App Center has GIMP 3.0, which has some obvious bugs like bump maps: https://www.reddit.com/r/GIMP/comments/1gvv9jt/new_user_cant_get_bump_map_working/ Blender is probably a better open source software to learn Understanding Common ports is pretty good article https://ostechnix.com/understanding-common-port-numbers/ Messing around with C++ and cellular automatons https://github.com/simin75simin/elementary-ca-cpp Watching top movies from thepiratebay... total top 100's torrents very healthy... https://thepiratebay.org/search.php?q=top100:all Stop doing ProjectEuler for now... Just too much debugging & math Maybe...
Here's me at my fourth job outta my college trying to contribute to some open-sourced projects in my free time. (Kinda a shame I haven't done it earlier.) What I learnt so far (day 1) - maintainers (those given write permissions by project creators) gets to approve PR (ah AI jobs did not teach me about github) - There are a lot of stuff I might be able to contribute to! (For example I can probably write quality pr for like 50% of this project's first-timer friendly requests) - I have some interesting project ideas myself!
