Mine would be creating pen and paper ciphers for my made up secret communication needs.

    I love troubleshooting, even though I complain a lot about it, I still do it.

    That doesn’t mean that I use systems that require high maintenance like Arch Linux, but openSUSE doesn’t have the same support as other known Linux distributions, so I sometimes have to adapt to the options I have, like using containers or compiling for my system.

    I also like to provide support for people and help family/friends with whatever they need, tech-related or not.

    It may sound silly, but a lot of family (whom I try to avoid) always tell me to charge for the things I do, but I like to help and even donate a lot of things when I can. I also have been trying to give back to the FOSS community. To me it’s like a hobby, and money isn’t everything.

      I’m a UX designer so I completely get the troubleshooting, I just have the urge to improve things. I’m not a coder though so most of the linux tinkering is beyond me, besides searching for someone else who knows how to do it. I’m mostly more on the visual side.
