In much the way I am aware of the Windows store: I avoid it and work to get the software directly from the source.

That is not the way things work on Linux - the repos essentially are the source. It is intended for apps to be packaged and distributed through official repos precisely to avoid the issues you listed, which are more often issues of downloading from sites. Package managers take care of incompatible versions and conflicts. That's definitely a Windows bias my friend :P

80% of the reason to move to Linux is hating Windows, so yeah

This but for real

This is what finally growing up feels like and it's shit

I ask this with full sincerity - are you unaware of the package manager?

I don't trust Biden one bit. Still better than Trump, though.

I always get bored! That's what drives me to explore and learn.

There are always more things. Once learning how to setup a server, there come more servers to learn about. After learning to program in one language, there come other languages and interesting programming projects etc. And along the way, you'll hear about and discover other interesting hobbies to check out. Maybe learning how to lockpick and learning how to program combine to learning about hacking, or cyber security. It goes in and on. There are always more interesting things to learn if you're curious.

I also am an endlessly curious person haha!

No, it's a different point

don't complain you're not offered the same opportunities

Citation needed for this alleged complaining

Also - don't make me laugh by comparing sucking up to your employer to genuine self improvement.

Like I already said - I do have initiative. Pointless busywork just to kiss ass is not showing initiative. It's showing compliance.

What you call "quiet quitting" IS putting in the work. You even said it yourself - it's doing exactly what is expected of you.

What you call "showing initiative" is allowing yourself to be ruled by the whims of a wannabe master. If they wanted you to do more, they should have put that in the job description. And if there's still work to be done, they should have hired another person. 1 can't do the work of 2.

I have initiative, I just don't waste it on wannabe kings
