    Over the past year, increased regulatory pressure in multiple regions like UK OFCOM and Australia's eSafety has led to higher operational costs, including infrastructure, security, and the need to work with more specialized service providers to keep the site online and stable.

    If you value the community and would like to help support its continued operation, donations are greatly appreciated. If you wish to donate via Bank Transfer or other options, please open a ticket.

My experience with very annoying commands:

Be careful about chmod'ing recursively. A script I wrote did it before mounting, then somehow the chmod propagated and messed up even sudo. While ChatGPT helped make the system usable with chmod and chown commands, a later recursive chmod of /etc (without enough exceptions, recommended by it to fix brightness buttons) broke the gui. The known good permission restore script failed too.

I backed up the broken system, did a dd restore of the linux partition, and had to boot from a live usb (recovery options), then reinstall grub.

Then I copied my files back (after upgrading back to trixie), and all was well, except for lost time and a slight reduction in SSD lifespan.
