This whole episode taught me the importance of diversifying the online communities/platforms that I use, and how NOT to rely on a single platform controlled by a for-profit entity.

From now on, it's communities based on open platforms first for me, and proprietary ones the distance second and only if I really can't avoid it.

Linux full-time on all of my machines since 2007 (various distros over the years, of course).

Ooh! Nice first chapter! Thanks for sharing! Will keep an eye on this one.

I use it daily, to connect my phone to my car AUX input and my various (very expensive) headphones.

If you want a book that does a really good job of explaining the basics and laying the foundation of Spring from the ground up, then I recommend Spring Start Here. It's the book I wish I had when I started working on Spring (Boot) projects all those years ago.

Wow, that's really neat.

Debian with KDE for my trusty X230 ThinkPad and Kubuntu for my desktop (mostly due to more up-to-date drivers for my gaming needs).
