GitHub is a great thing but oss being mostly hosted on a Microsoft platform gives me chills.
I Selfhost.

Vscode is not bad, but the pinnacle if textediting is neovim. That's a war for another thread, greetings emacs guys.
I don't particularly hate MS (yet), but I hate some aspects of it.
I hate windows. I'm not even sure if I'm objectively right but it does not even matter. GNU/Linux is just a superior software system. I hate how Windows is not Linux and find most things they do different stupid. I'm not going to make an exhaustive list here, but for starters:
Windows, especially before 11, is so ugly. On Linux I can install themes, fancy WMs, entire DEs, etc etc. MacOS is famously overdesigned, never used but from what I hear it seems good too.
Windows does not support links. They have some weird thing, but it's not the beauty of Symbolic and Hardlonks on Unix like systems.
Backslash in paths. Come on. And yes I know regular slashes work most of the time nowadays, but the default is just bad.
Multiple roots. C: D: and so on. Probably an okay design choice, but I like the UNIX way better.
No central package Manager. There is windows store, and it's a step in the right direction, but it's not the same as apt, dnf, pacman and so on. Installing things is just annoying, every time.
Terminal sucks on windows. I hate PowerShell with it's weird verbose syntax. Installed programs are most often not usable and I have to manually add them to PATH. Common things, like ctrl-d for EOF does not work.
There is probably much more than that. I find windows to just be a bad OS. And this is subjective, I know. Some people don't care, some even like windows better for some reason. It's probably not as bad as I feel it is.
Here is another completely h related thing: Microsoft naught Rare, a software studio that developed games for Nintendo. And oh boy, what games. During the N64 era, they made timeless classics like banjo kazooie, until MS bought them and drove them against the wall.
Postmarketos is a great project, but I couldn't get it to boot on my device.
Not Sure. But it doesn't mean anything when is I can't get a proper distro to boot.
Yeah Sure. I Bet there are many people who want to buy Nintendo.
Tried to host a pihole with distrobix some time ago, eventually it just stopped responding sadly. I want a debian server that I can ssh into, it's the bare minimum to host stuff IMO. Tmux is great, but I use it as a client, not a server.
Best case would be to trash the whole android os and somehow get a real Linux distro running headless (I know android is technically Linux, but it does not count)
What part of that is a never before seen backdoor?
Ah damn, I forgot. Thanks!
Welcome to the top of cryptography. We have elliptic curves, crazy math and huge numbers.
Changing the default porta is security through obscurity, which is not security but just a waste of time. Don't rely on attackers "maybe not finding stuff" but rely on your stuff being secure, even if someone had all information about your network and system architecture.
For 2fa, the other commenter mentioned yubikey pam modules. Those are probably useful, but if you want to secure your ssh server, the best solution is to use ssh keys and disable password login. I can really recommend that as its one of the few things in security that improves both usability and security.
What makes you think windows is designed by engineeres? I suppose you mean software engineers with that. I'd think that Linux is the system designed by engineers.
