Google is againsts sharing of Linux distros
BEWARE! When you upload an innocent linux distro or you own linux distro flavor iso images on google drive. It will automatically flagged by google as malware if the iso image size of a distro was below 1GB. Google is becoming more incompetent.

Dock station that supports Linux
Long time Linux user (off and on). Setting up a laptop workstation for my new job and I'm shopping for a dock that supports Linux. When I search "laptop dock linux" on Amazon, the top searches all explicitly say that they don't support Linux. So where do I find dock stations that support linux?

Camo Studio alternatives for Linux?
I run Fedora and I wanted to use Camo Studio ever since switching from Windows 11 but it's not available for Linux.
My laptop has a really crappy potato webcam and I'm going to take online meetings for some of my college classes and I really liked Camo Studio on Windows because you can not only use your iPhone as a webcam via USB or Wirelessly, but it also supports buil-in tools like framing, backround tools, image enhancements, overlays, AR, changing lenses, audio settings, etc. you get the idea.
I know there's Iriun and Droidcam for Linux but they don't have anywhere near the same capabilities that Camo offers. I really don't want to go back to Windows.
Do you know any good alternatives? Or should I resign and use Iriun even though it's basic?

Fun Linux challenges for 12yo
My son is 12 and has always had a fascination with operating systems. He currently has 65 Windows and Mac VMs on his computer. Sometimes over a weekend he'll upgrade a VM from Windows XP all the way to Windows 11 just for the challenge, and he loves explaining the different UI elements and wallpapers and what changed from one version to the next.
I've been trying for some time now to get him interested in Linux (though my own skills with Linux are only intermediate at best) hoping it may segue into a career path someday, but he's been largely uninterested (not being able to run Fortnite is a huge deal-breaker for him). I've been bribing him with challenges (or "bounties," in Fortnite parlance) with cash for things like choosing and installing a distro, customizing it with wallpapers, and demonstrating mastery of basic terminal commands. He successfully got EmuDeck set up in his Mint install for all his emulators, so that's one killer app for Linux, at least.
TIFU though. After watching the latest Pewdiepie video he showed an interest in Hyprland, so I offered a bounty for getting that up and running without realizing quite how daunting a task that was. There were tears.
So my question is: does anyone have any other ideas for fun Linux challenges that might be suitable for a Linux beginner like him?

What should I learn on Linux as a teen?
So I’m a teen who recently installed linux, I’m currently using Ubuntu and a vm to run Kali because I have an interest in pen testing and I’m trying to learn it.
I was wondering what are the best time efficient ways to learn networking, linux and python for networking by myself that will give me hands on experience that I can do with little to no experience or knowledge. Keep in mind I don’t have that much time on my hands because I’m in the final two years of school?

Thinking of moving to Linux but I have questions.
So software isn't a issue as I use gimp and da Vinci resolve on my windows 10 with the only thing adobe software I use being Adobe express which I'm guessing I can access from a web browser on Linuxs.
I'm running a old PC and I've never installed a system before so could someone recommend a video on that.
I also wanted to ask if I decided I don't want to use Linux is it hard to go back to windows 10 with everything being the exact same as it was before thank you.

1440p / 120Hz display compatibility with Linux
Hello, I am looking to buy a PC to run Linux, but I want to benefit from high resolution and high refresh rate.
If my monitor supports 1440p 120Hz and that the CPU I choose has integrated graphics that also supports it (HDMI 2.1, either Intel or AMD), will it work well under Linux (Mint) or should I expect problems ?
I don't want to buy expensive hardware and encounter problems.

Linux appreciation post
I just wanted to write an appreciation post in relation to Linux. A year ago, my high end Yoga laptop died due to a motherboard issue and I couldn't afford a new laptop. I had to use my parents laptop which we collectively called the trashy laptop due to having a Celeron chip and 4GB RAM running Windows 10. My sister already broke the keyboard for being too slow. I removed bloatware using registry options but it was still slow af.
I used Linux on a school computer years ago and also in VMs. So I tried to install Ubuntu on this laptop and wow. It was quick and usable. I used it until I could afford a new one. Lost my trust in high end laptop and bought a refurbished laptop with i5 and 8GB RAM as I already have a desktop. Now I am running Fedora on it. I still have dual boot on just for Adobe and Office but I rarely use it.
Yesterday, I logged in my Windows. Just at lock screen I can see some trash widgets automatically switched on. I forgot about Edge with their AI bs and 'News Feed' which has news about USA while I am like 5000 miles away. It is funny how we pay so much for an OS and can't remove some files cause only the 'system admin' can do that to MY HOME PC. Thank god for Linux and their customisation. Can sudo my way out of everything.

my /linux journey
I got introduced to Linux about 16 years ago. Before that I was genuinely scared of if as to how I can use the command line interface to do all. At least that was my perception of Linux.
My friend in grad school was using Ubuntu and school was using CentOS or Fedora. I kind of got used to it but did not like it. Now when I look back I feel I did not like it because I did not used it extensively for development. I only used it sporadically for some school work and documentation. Fast forward to 8 years later my work required us to build and integration to one of the e-commerce applications which is very easy to setup on Linux. That is how I got back into Linux ecosystem. Since then I have not looked back. Although I primarily use Ubuntu desktop and Server, I have built my home server for NAS, Nextcloud and other services.
It has been a fantastic journey and along the way learned a lot about Linux which I would have never learned if it was not for that project. Now I'm of opinion that someone who isn't tied into MS ecosystem should or must use only Linux based operating systems. 😄

🎉 ProjectLibre 1.9.8: The Biggest Desktop Release in YEARS is HERE! 🚀
Today marks a monumental day for the ProjectLibre community! We are absolutely thrilled to announce the immediate release of ProjectLibre Desktop 1.9.8 – our most significant desktop update in years, delivering a colossal leap forward in performance and stability.
Founders Marc O’Brien and Laurent Chretienneau have long championed the power of open source, and their commitment has driven this effort. For those who believe in free and open source project management, rest assured: ProjectLibre Desktop remains, and will always remain. We are proud to be the most widely distributed project management software in the world, with over 7,600,000 downloads spanning 193 countries across the globe. In fact, it’s a fun testament to our community that more than 1 in every 300 Americans and 1 in every 200 Germans have downloaded ProjectLibre!
This latest iteration, version 1.9.8, unleashes a massive 10x performance increase across many key functions. We’ve also implemented significant backend and architectural updates, resulting in a much more stable and reliable experience on Linux (.deb and .rpm installations), macOS, and Windows. The early reception has been incredible! Just today, ProjectLibre 1.9.8 has already been downloaded in over 100 countries from Morocco, Madagascar all the way to the Maldive Islands, demonstrating the global excitement for this update.
Important Note for Windows Users:When installing on Windows, you might encounter a prompt from Windows Defender. To proceed, please select the option to Trust file (or similar wording), then click on “More info” and choose “Run anyway” to allow the installation. We believe this temporary step is due to Windows Defender building a reputation profile for this major release – perhaps it senses we’re giving Microsoft Project a run for its money! 😉
