Deep dives

Advocate, Not a Gatekeeper

Chris from Explaining Computers discusses the importance of being an advocate for Linux rather than a gatekeeper. He highlights the need for inclusiveness and support for all users, regardless of their technical knowledge. The Linux community should focus on helping newcomers and promoting the use of Linux, just like other communities, such as the Mac community, do. While there is some positive support in the Linux community, there is also a group that gates access to Linux based on technical abilities, which hinders its growth.
