When you first started learning Linux, which distro did you begin with? Would love to know what people started on and whether you stuck with it or moved on to something else.

Hello everyone, I'm Adekola, based in Abuja, Nigeria. I work as an IT Support Specialist at FCCPC, and I also did cybersecurity internship at CyberSapiens United LLP years back. A bit about where I'm at in my IT journey: I've been building on both the security and infrastructure sides. On security - CEH certified, ISC2 candidate, doing VAPT and bug bounty work (HCS Penetration Testing from Hacktify). On the sysadmin/networking side - recently completed Windows Server 2022 Hands-on Labs (Active Directory, File and Storage Services) and Cisco Packet Tracer for SOHO networking. I also code in Python and use it for automation and web scraping. Why I joined: I want to go deeper than the certs and actually build real, day-to-day sysadmin experience, the kind that comes from doing the work, not just passing exams. Excited to learn from this community. Adekola Gabriel A
