Veronica Explains

I'm Veronica! I love Linux, old computer hardware, and explaining things. Some folks call me the Linux Mom, and that works for me. I'm a former "legacy systems" sysadmin who's posting fun content about cool things you can do with Linux, as well as some fun retro tech stuff I come across!

They probably are. :)

We do this nasty thing in tech sometimes where we really rip into each other for our hardware and software choices. We "content creators" also have a bad habit of using very aggressive language to get attention. And I don't like it! Hrmph!

In today's "opinion-piece" episode of Veronica Explains, I share my take on this phenomenon, and why I think it's not a great thing. Maybe I'll change your mind, and maybe I won't. That's how it works!

And big shoutout to @Gardiner Bryant | TLG for the voiceover at the beginning! Go check out his channel!
