Before we learn about my Linux journey, let us take a glimpse at my past! It was probably year 2016 when I got my first computer, and like any classic teenager would, I stuck to playing games. It taught me several things to be honest. The one's that top the list are File Management, Torrent, How to not get click-baited and such things. This was the beginning of my using tech, never knew that the stuff I did back then would influence me to this extent.

Beginning of Linux

Around 2018, I was reading an article by NullByte and that was the bloom of linux in my mind. I, like many other linux enthusiast started my journey with the Debian based Kali Linux distro. To my surprise, It was excellent. Of course I wiped off the hard disk from the family computer while installing a new operating system on bare metal, but the sense of accomplishment was much greater to be honest. So I stuck with it for a while until high school happened

Welcome to the High School

In my country, secondary high school is a big deal since we have highly competitive exams to attempt and crack. Unfortunately, I didn't make it but that's a different story for a different blog.
Now that High school was over, I had alot of free time and I mean Alot, it was around this time I made my First Website, but this free time allowed me to experiment!

Let the Experiment begin

Oh boy this was a really fast paced time, I went from Kali linux to Parrot Security OS real fast. Parrot was really good. I had similar UI (ofc I use GNOME), easier installation and best of all was the fact that it had all the pentesting tools like burp, metasploit, aircrack-ng, Zenmap, Ettercap and many other in built. The cherry on top was that it connected to Wi-Fi drivers without a hassle. Soo this was something I loved. The came Pop OS! to the story. Pop!OS was clean, it was really beginner friendly. I really should have tried it a long time ago. But hey we were here. Then I went to Garuda Linux. This was too cool, trust me. The Dragonised theme was top notch, it was an eyecandy. The boot-time was fast but not as fast as PopOS or any other's. It was not the most user friendly distro, but it was alright because I already had gotten a hang of Linux by now. A few other distro's were Ubuntu, Manjaro, I tried Gentoo but miserably failed and CuteFish OS

I use Arch btw!

As you guessed, I ofc stumbled upon Arch, I love it. It has arguably the fastest boot time I have ever seen. I know exactly what to install or update whenever anything goes wrong. I also fell in love with r/unixporn and Arch was perfect for testing ever single dot file I could get my hands on. Now, currently I am on Arch and I think I will continue to experiment with it!
