Start a blog instead. I'd rather read it than listen to someone babbling.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

The niche tech channels I tend to like the most seem to do one of two things, sometimes both. They go deep into history of obscure topics, or they use old tech in a novel way. If you can do either or both, I would probably subscribe.
I see, that's fair, thanks for the input though appreciate it!
If you post anything, I will check it out!
thanks!
Would you have a specific angle or interesting take on anything? If it's just recapping the week's news, I think you'll have a hard time gaining an audience.
yes! very obscure topics and basically things that are not talked about a lot if at all!
You can try and later post peertube/youtube link. Nobody can really guarantee that it will be interesting for them until they see it.
Fair enough then, thanks
There's a ton of linux rant channels with a following, so there is a market for them
I don't wanna copy them, I have other topics I think they are untouched and it would be nice to start a conversation about them. for example "why the normies complain about the proprietary apps they use but then when you suggest something better they just brush it off" ("I hate facebook messenger, its buggy as hell", "try signal then", "no.") thats one example of the stuff I will cover, basically very obscure topics, that nobody have covered yet
You'll only know if you do it. If you stick to it, improve it and evaluate it every now and then
Alright then I'll try to post smth, and see if you guys like it or smth idk
