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.

Lol guys I find this interesting, they made videos that long ago, so much progress. Brodies Podcast was pretty useless short before that, now nearly every episode is really interesting.

AND both Wayland promoters just didnt use it back then.

I agree with you in this, that I don't like watching most stuff on YouTube and prefer short articles to read (unless they are written from an AI, which plagues most blogs now). But recent years I became more and more of a YouTube/video consumer and sometimes just sitting there and watching for pure fun is also cool. But I absolutely get what you are saying. Maybe I'm a bit used to his style now.

Often when I watch others, it feels such a waste of time. I have memorized to use jumping to next chapter with keyboard shortcut Ctrl-right, which is a godsend, plus SponsorBlock addon (not only for sponsors, but also for outros, recaps, interaction reminder and such). I even watch many videos at higher speed, often x1.2. Many people are talking too slow in my opinion, but Brodie is not one of them.
