You can be but it’s very rare to find someone that is.

For programming I always tell folks you need 3 skills: adaptability, self-reliance, and strong problem solving (thinking outside of the box, etc)

The most lacking skill I see new students is self-reliance. Learning to do your own research, knowing when to ask for help and when not to, etc.

I run ClaysOS and GrapheneOS (current on graphene OS).

I tried nebora after I effed up my kunutnu install. I was doing some super weird stuff. (Tried to remove snap)

Nebora for me was the worst experience out of every distro I’ve tried. I went back to kubuntu and manually applied what nebora did with much better results. (This time around I removed snap before doing anything else).

Kububtu with snap removed has been perfect so far.
