## You might be wondering: who the hell are you, and why should I trust you?
|
||||
|
||||
These are pretty easy to answer: my name is Lourenço, and I'm literally just a person. I've been a financial analyst, project manager, IT support engineer, and a farmer. Perhaps most importantly, I've always been a geek at heart - I assembled my first computer at age 14, and the first thing I did was install Linux on it. Since then, this has been my main operating system on all the machines I use.
|
||||
|
||||
As for trust, you shouldn't trust me if this is the first time you hear of me or this project. But here's a few things that might assuage your fears: I'm not a faceless corporation that treats you as a product; I'm not going to use an AI chatbot to intermediate your conversations; and you can be sure that whatever services I provide, I'll do it as if I was doing it for myself.
|
||||
|
||||
## Why are you doing this?
|
||||
|
||||
You know how they say that you should find something that gives your life meaning? Well, I think this is it. I love to help people, and I loathe big tech, how they've turned the cyber space into a completely sterile place devoid of any personality, since we stopped being active participants in it, but rather pure consumers of whatever it is they're selling.
|
||||
|
||||
So, this is my attempt to fight against the tide. Every time I've helped my friends and family to move from Windows to Linux, I've felt like I did something good; if I can convince someone to move away from a cloud solution to a local one, I'm a happy egg; and if they delete their Google, Facebook, or Instagram accounts, all the better.
