Neigsendoig (my producer) and I started to shy away from Flatpaks. We've hated Snap already, and rather distro packages, third-party compiled packages and AppImages.

My producer, Neigsendoig, might have a good start, as I edited for him in the past.

What he tends to do is be more analytical with his work. However, in my personal opinion, based upon what you're going for, I would personally say to find your speaking style, and then advertise to that specific demographic. Sendo (as Neigsendoig is usually referred to) tends to stick with what he does, especially when it comes to his discussions.

Long story short, find something you're passionate about, and talk about it. YouTubers tend to well when they stick to what they're best at.

The problem is that we don't know how to DDoS anything (which is a good problem to have). We already use a different distro, and stay away as best as we can from the above described.

So Collective Shout is doing the same to them, aren't they?

I'm an aspiring Vtuber focused right now on narrating for one of three YouTube channels I'm associated with (that being Cocules Reddit Readings), but I want to expand on that in the future once I get myself out there with proper connections.

I do this, however, using Linux and FOSS. My producer does his channels the exact same way.

My producer and I personally use Bash. We tried zsh, but that didn't treat us very well. Fish is actually pretty nice, though.

I think Fils-Amie's thought are also relevant, just as much as Iwata's.

You wouldn't host a FOSS mod for a game that implements security fixes and much needed third-party server support.

Good luck getting my producer or myself to buy an $80 USD game.

We'd rather play older ones that actually have an active community. Suckers.

Neigsendoig and I happened to be Linux users since 2020. We're actually glad to see that people are noticing the writing on the wall.

It was inevitable.

Neigsendoig (my producer) and I have used i3 for a while... and we've probably stayed on that since we first started using WMs.

That said, we've attempted the likes of Xmonad (configured in Haskell), Awesome (configured in Lua), HerbstluftWM, BSPWM, Hypr (not Hyprland), JWM, Ratpoison and even SXWM.

Neigsendoig and I wouldn't recommend any Wayland compositor due to new security risks (despite an attempt to fix X11 security issues), though a lot of people want Wayland to be shoved down our throats. We personally use X11 due to many things that Wayland devs can't/won't fix.

This is also part of the reason why the two of us are excited about XLibre (as much as some will hate the control of IBM, GNOME and FreeDesktop with their Wayland, Systemd and PipeWire push). Sure, its main developer left the project from what we've heard, but otherwise, there are a lot of contributions to it, and it will improve big time.
