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!

New on Veronica Explains - Word of the Week!

This week, we'll be defining "backporting".

Backporting is when an older software package receives an update from a newer version of the same software.

Software developers frequently backport important fixes from new to old versions of their work- it's vital to understand for any Linux sysadmin!

Oh, and if you want to help me make more videos, please check out https://support.linux.mom. Thank you!
