==Why Fedora?==
==Why Fedora?==
Akashdeep is addicted to '''distrohopping''' (a tendency to not settle for one distribution for long enough and constantly switch to try new features). On one of his distrohopping endeavours, he was struck by the uniqueness of Fedora with how it embraced the leading edge technologies while being a friendly and conventional point-release based distribution. Since then, he enjoys his newfound home in Fedora Workstation.

About

I am a cybersecurity enthusiast with keen interests in networking, cloud computing, DevOps, and operating systems. I am currently in the final year of my bachelor's degree with computer science as a major specialization and cybersecurity as a minor specialization. I have over five years of experience in using GNU/Linux systems and have made contributions to Fedora made in applications, infrastructure, classrooms, QnA, and documentation so far.

Apart from this, I like to get involved in

  • Developing cool application and service projects by myself
  • Leading the development of projects in the AstroSonic FOSS Community
  • Dampening the learning curve for people new to GNU/Linux
  • Teaching people about programming languages, development practices and DevOps
  • Using COPR to package my projects for RPM-based distributions
  • Tinkering around containerization technologies and internet-of-things project on Raspberry Pi
  • Meeting new people and making bad jokes at Join SIG chat
  • Answering technical questions on Quora
  • Resolving issues and queries on AskFedora

Why Fedora?

I am addicted to distro-hopping (a tendency to not settle for one distribution for long enough and constantly switch to try new features). On one of my distro-hopping endeavors, I was struck by the uniqueness of Fedora with how it embraced the leading edge technologies while being a friendly and conventional point-release based distribution. Since then, I enjoy my newfound home in Fedora Workstation (while occasionally switching back to Arch Linux because of the dependency paranoia)

Availability

I am available in these places around the clock.

Packages

  • nvidia-auto-installer-for-fedora - A CLI tool which lets you install proprietary NVIDIA drivers and much more easily on Fedora 32 and above (COPR)
  • supervisor - An intuitive remotely-accessible system performance monitoring and task management tool for servers and headless Raspberry Pi setups.
