WELCOME TRAVELER

Are you tired of [bloat](bloat.md) and can't stand [shitty](shit.md) software like [Windows](windows.md) anymore? Do you hate [capitalism](capitalism.md)? Do you also hate the [fascist alternatives](tranny_software.md) you're being offered? Do you just want to create a genuinely good technology without [bullshit](bullshit.md) that would help all people? Do you just want to share knowledge freely without [censorship](censorship.md)? You have come to the right place.

Firstly let us welcome you, no matter who you are, no matter your political opinion and skills, we are glad to have you here.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you don't know how to start, here are some basic steps:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. **Learn about the most essential topics and concepts**, mainly [free software](free_software.md), [open-source](open_source.md), [bloat](bloat.md), [capitalist_software](capitalist_software.md), [suckless](suckless.md) and [LRS](lrs.md).
|
||
|
|
2. **Install [GNU](gnu.md)/[Linux](linux.md)** operating system to free yourself from shit like [Windows](windows.md) and [Mac](mac.md). Do NOT try to switch to "Linux" right away if it's your first time, it's almost impossible, you want to just install "Linux" as [dual boot](dual_boot.md) (alongside your main OS) or on another computer. This way you'll be using both operating systems, slowly getting more comfortable with "Linux" and eventually you'll find yourself uninstalling Windows altogether. You can also just try "Linux" in a [virtual machine](vm.md), from a live CD or you can buy something with "Linux" preinstalled like [Raspberry Pi](raspberry.md). **Which "Linux" to install?** There are many options and as a noob you don't have to go hardcore right away, just install any [distro](distro.md) that "works" (don't listen to people who tell you to install [Gentoo](gentoo.md) tho). You can try these:
|
||
|
|
- [Devuan](devuan.md): Nice, [LRS](lrs.md) approved distro that respects your [freedom](free_software.md) that just works, is easy to install and is actually nice. Good for any skill level.
|
||
|
|
- [Debian](debian.md): Like Devuan but uses the evil [systemd](systemd.md) which doesn't have to bother you at this point. Try Debian if Devuan doesn't work for any reason.
|
||
|
|
- [Mint](mint.md): More noob, [bloated](bloat.md) and mainstream distro that only mildly cares about freedom, but is extremely easy and works almost everywhere. Try this if Debian didn't work for you.
|
||
|
|
- [Ubuntu](ubuntu.md): Kind of like Mint, try it if Mint didn't work.
|
||
|
|
- [Arch](arch.md): This is actually a hardcore distro that also has many flaws from [LRS](lrs.md) point of view, but some people like it very much. Only try this if you want a challenge.
|
||
|
|
2. Learn a bit of [command line](cli.md) and start using [FOSS](foss.md) alternatives to you [proprietary](proprietary.md) programs, e.g. [GIMP](gimp.md) instead of Photoshop.
|
||
|
|
3. If you want to program [LRS](lrs.md), learn [C](c.md). TODO
