I was a Linux fanboy from 2001, When the first system was RH 6.2 and later on
Suse and Slackware. It wasn't until 2007 or so, when i really got into
Debian, which separated main, contrib, nonfree. I remember reading it from
somewhere why this is, and ignored it for the start.
I then read about DeLi Linux, which wasn't fully free then. The name changed
eventually to ConnochaetOS, and freedom was set as an aim. This sucked me in,
while I was learning more and more about the free software foundation.
I escaped Facebook, rejected or dropped out from those Microsoft Courses in
my University that I could, and chose networking or programming over it.
Then, I went to gNewSense and used it quite a while, until I now bounce
between ConnOS and Trisquel. I started contributing to ConnOS and moved all
my computers to Trisquel / ConnOS.
I do my thesis notes on emacs. There's no system like GNU, and HURD is one of
it's kernels.
