I’m not a developer, and I’ve always been terrible at sysadmin-type tasks. That’s why I always resisted switching to a Linux laptop as my daily driver.
A year ago, I finally decided to make an Ubuntu machine my main workhorse. I was proud of myself but also incredibly uncomfortable—always nervous about messing things up, unable to handle simple tasks like properly setting up my disks, and constantly confused by the different ways to install apps (snap, flatpak, …). Well, that’s all over now, thanks to the Warp AI-powered terminal!
It’s like having one of my smartest dev friends sitting next to me, but without the embarrassment of constantly having to ask for help.
Today, Warp helped me set up a RAID 1 disk to mirror my main storage. Then, I asked it to run a check for keyloggers, and I ended up with a cron job that runs weekly to scan for all kinds of threats (rootkits, viruses, open ports, etc.). As a bonus, it even sends me a nice report with the test results via email.
I can't recommend it enough!
The free plan will easily cover everything you need to become a Linux power user. (Thanks nostr:nprofile1qywhwumn8ghj7mn0wd68yttsw43zuam9d3kx7unyv4ezumn9wsq3yamnwvaz7tmsw4e8qmr9wpskwtn9wvqzqak8r2hr5jglrk0wc37t59lz98x6gyf6pwaku6hpwakhvslznjh6z5205k for the tip!)
