We can help but not doing the right way is really bad. It starts with caring and then understanding the problem perfectly to apply a solution.
This "understanding the problem" is what many fail to do when helping. Dont get me wrong, helping anyway is good but we should make sure it is effective.
"People will never understand what others experience unless they are in there place."
I get it. But these struggles like these have happened since human history.
We laugh about it because we have heard so much of this that we feel normal. Hearing about such struggles and atrocities will give us shock when hearing for forst time but eventually we get used to it.
Even then we should be able to help in anyway we can.
Even though there are really bad things in human history, there are still good things in human history and this is what keeps me happy!
Thanks for response!
Well not every app is in flatpak. Like steam gives you a .deb to download and not a flatpak. Only for this reason I said "dont say about flatpak". I would definetly use flatpak where ever possible. I was simply asking for help in linux permsions and users in case I cant run app in flatpak. It isn't a vague desire for "plain old linux" but instead a desire for when flatpaks arent possible, I need to do the same for it with plain linux.
But now I understand that these tools I mentioned arent really plain linux like I thought. I should have asked the question properly Also I didnt know firejail was like flatpak though.
So I now understand what to ask exactly.
I want to learn underlying tools which apps like flatpak and firejail use. Mainly the user permssions and filesystem permissions. Dont want to learn the application themseleves but want to do myself what these applications do in behind the scenes.
Thanks for the sources though!
For some reason when I select images and post it, my app crashes. But not when selecting text and then inserting it in markdown image link like this one below. (Just a test, ignore the meme)
Is anybody else facing this problem?
Woah cool How do I do this?
Edit: Not able to find the settings for it. I need help. I want to do it in potrait not landscape just so you know
I just think it as a way of showing which account you are posting from
Kind of looks like windows vista design. Also it is probably a best thing that linux be adopted by countries. Gives better control and can be used for variety of purposes
I have heard a lot of this apparmor but don't know anything about it. I know the name explains it, but what is it exactly? What does it do?
Also you say as if creating profiles and users are different? Isn't creating user accounts same as creating a new profile in linux, or am I confusing with profiles which are in apparmor?
Would appreciate some articles and tutorials regarding apparmor
When I started linux, I heard creating seperate user accounts for specific uses only is a good step to security in linux. I haven't tried it but after seeing concerns regarding some game launchers snooping around the os, I am trying to see how hard will it be to not let them. I only know the basics of user creation through GUI.
I wont be running games by the way, but I want to have this knowledge of user accounts in linux as a linux security enthusiast. I just want to create a user account where only apps or packages will run with no root access or access to outside its home folder. Even installing apps or packages should not require root to install and must be installed in that home folder and not /usr/bin or /lib. Should be like sandbox environment. I have complete control of permisions and processes of the app. Dont say about flatpak or virtual machines, not talking about that here, just plain old linux.
Note that I am not doing this out of paronoia but as a security enthusiast. I have heard about firejail, SE linux, and WhonixOS but just scratched the surface of it.
How should I do this? I need some sources to read all about linux user accounts.
Social media has fried people's brains
Well real purpose of social media and social network is about connecting and communicating with people all around the globe. It is about conversation about topics and sharing experiences.
But the shitty thing is algorithm and addictions which keeps us hooked. I will always support ethical ways of social media and social network. Love the fediverse!
And your post literally got some actual good suggestions for your question. I mean it's literally supposed to be silly bruh
