About Me

Hi there, I'm Yattatux

Enthusiastic Fedora GNU/Linux user, I support the FLOSS software and love pixel-art retrogames. I often travel by bicycle.

The best way to get in touch with me is either via email or Matrix (@yattatux:fedora.im).

I'm Fedora user since 2012, and I love it.
I contributed as a documentation author (in Italian language, of course) and forum moderator in the Italian Fedora community: FedoraOnline.it

In my spare time I like to write.
I am a cyberpunk and weird author (some people know me as Burt OZ Wilson or Alessandro) and I use Fedora for all my creative workflows. The connection between my passion for writing and my daily use of Fedora as a power user (in addition to all the FLOSS software) convinced me to write a manual dedicated to using Fedora in creative writing. So, in 2017 “Open Writing On Fedora 25” was born: it is a free downloadable PDF manual. In it is described, in its various chapters, what Fedora is, how to install it, and how a creator can manage her/him workflow using Fedora and the FLOSS software that can be installed in it.

Knowledges

Not much, actually.
I like to try and experiment, and I find answers by reading documentation or man pages. So, I can't offer much to Fedora from a technical standpoint: but I use my few skills to try to help other novice users (like me) improve their experience with Fedora. My experiences involve solving the (few) problems I myself have encountered in using the Fedora system and the targeted use of software targeted at writing.

Current Plans about FLOSS

It's really banal, I know: to make the most of my abilities, I have to do what I do best.
What I do best (in my opinion) is writing. For this reason, in addition to collaborating on translating the site and doc into Italian, I am pursuing a personal (but hopefully becoming collaborative) project about Fedora: a new version of “Open Writing On Fedora”.

Currently the project is open on Codeberg to anyone who wants to collaborate. Link: https://codeberg.org/yattatux/oWoF

I would also like to follow, start as a spectator, the Fedora DEI: I think it is one of the most interesting Fedora teams and subprojects.

How I'm using Fedora

This is my Fedora configuration: Fujitsu Lifebook S936, 20gb Ram, 2x SSD, Mechanical keyboard Cherry MX brown.

Fedora 40 Workstation

  • Desktop Environment: Gnome

I am also currently trying Fedora Silverblue. Could it be my future choice?

I am trying to follow, as much as possible, the documentation, QA and DEI.
