A software using CC-BY-NC-4 is not a good option, as it was made for media. If skiff markets itself as open source, it should respect the guidelines of opensource( it's open source(https://opensource.org/osd/), you can read the 6th rule. It says the software should not be limited for commercial use.)

Skiff licensed all of it's apps it at CC-BY-NC-4, why not change it for GPL 3.0 to make it a real free and open source software that respects user's freedom and mandates the fork to be free and open source. There's a difference between free software, open source and source available!

Sure, you dont know what's important, how things work when you start out! But when you randomly explore, you're hit with blocks and in order to pass it you have to analyze, examine it. In the process, you better develop your intuition as you yourself explore it and understand it to the core.

Suppose, your end destination is some place, there is a forest before the place you need to reach. If you know the path(when someone teaches you), you can reach the destination effectively and quickly. But if you explore it yourself, it may take some time but you get to know the forest when you analyze and careful enough that you are not be lost.

I think, the goal that is learning linux has to do with everything that makes the linux, but it is a long and boring process, when one learns without knowing the basics or the philosophy behind it. I think that, I better get to know about forest(basics of linux) and then explore randomly when you know what you're doing.

I find a website, linuxjourney.com. Let me try and understand the basics of linux.

Wow, I've planned to learn linux by exploring and doing. Any suggestions on exploration?

I plan to try arch and then gentoo, are there any resources which teach the very fundamentals of linux?

the whole OS, everything from kernel to installation to philosophy

'read and then do'? How is it better than 'learn while you do'? It may save you some time when you read and then do, but I think you can learn more when you do and also learn in the process? Correct me, If I'm wrong. Are there any books or resources which are available for free of cost?

Understanding is more important than installation! So, arch is a starting point and then gentoo for a little advanced user? Yes, the community and the philosophy behind the GNU/Linux made it a great thing to explore! As it have made me switch from windows to GNU/Linux!

To make the learning process much more enjoyable, I'am going to try one of the OS'es either arch or gentoo. Which one will best for as a beginner? As gentoo has much more wiki than arch, which one will best suit for beginners(like me) to trying to understand things? Are there some resources, where I can learn some very basic stuff like about package manager, linux kernel, etc(if there, please share it here) and then it would be good if I go onto the installation and then onto the LFS thing. Learning linux would be a fantastic journey!

Hey, learning through book is great, but how is it better than installing gentoo, arch or through LFS. What would be the best way to actually understand how linux works

Hey, I will try to ubderstand LFS and build it myself. If it's much harder than I expected it to be, i will install gentoo. What about arch? Why install gentoo instead of arch? The installation process of gentoo will teach me about linux, the same could be said about arch?

Hey, thanks for the great suggestion. Looked onto it and it's great to build your own linux. I think that's really the essence of linux, the freedom to build it on your own.
