All those “experts” lecturing you and they don’t even know about man in the middle attacks.
They don’t know that there are active bots searching for HTTP addresses to inject risky code or redirect to malicious sites.
You providing some feedback which may help OP is seen as criticism.
I think for me the wave has more peaks and valleys.
I get to the last stage of good knowledge and decent confidence but then something new comes and I feel I’m ready for punishment again.
My first Valley of despair was Gentoo. 6 months of constantly compiling stuff and rarely using the computer for anything else. But a bit before that it was Fedora. In those early days, updates would continuously break my system.
In that first round I finally settled for Mint for years. After years of stable Linux Mint, I found my self with time and curious for Arch. And yes, that became the new l valley of despair. But eventually my stable instance.
But new things come and Wayland and new sound systems replaced what I had in my installation. Arch was again the valley of despair. And moved to Fedora, which is as stable as stable can be. I was traveling for the last two years so, no time to mess around.
Now back to arch trying to figure out the Wayland/Niri ecosystem. Let’s see where I land.
However, in my dual boots I always have a working installation I’m happy with and another which I mess up with.
