"Open-Source vs. Proprietary. It's a debate meant for specialists. The end user usually isn't concerned at all! It's like buying a Mac and then wanting to understand, see, and maybe modify its processor.
Conceptually, Software isn't different from Hardware. And so, if you believe that all information should be copyleft, then the same should apply to material things as well!"

I'm feed up with Google Super-Powers
Sorry, but even if you are captivated by the seductive functionality of the main Search Engines, the truth is they are still poor and disappointing in their ability to provide reliable results for Linux Tutorials. Google is just surfing the surface of the Web Ocean... Yet, because of its Succe$$$, it very smartly gives you the illusion of Super-Powers!
Moreover, Google Search indexing has now become too sophisticated in its criteria, often “throwing away the baby with the bathwater”.
- Very good at indexing very specific topics with a limited number of results.
- Not good at indexing more generic topics with thousands of results.
- Not good at indexing large websites with very frequently updated, similar entries.

Medium+Mastodon is the Best Cunning Marketing
"You easily support Wikipedia or Medium because they don’t show disturbing Ads! True?!
But now you should know that much of the best free content has been published here — and on YouTube — thanks to the existing Google Supporting Publishers Program!
Now, Medium is well-funded and smart enough for the Smartest Long-Term Marketing! They are just waiting for the time to Fi$$$h and Swallow into the Manstodon big Throat!
Do not publish tutorials for free on Medium! It’s not your domain. They should give you something back, LOL! Be aware… and wiser.
As a great free choice for a personal blog, you have Blogger — it’s where I started out… :)"
