If you need to share your work with others or sync it across devices, consider <a href="https://mastodon.xyz/@nextcloud" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@nextcloud</a> / <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/nextcloud" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nextcloud</a>. <ul><li>If you don't have any admin already in your organization.and it's permissible but you don't want to setup your own, consider <a href="https://monocles.social/@monocles" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@monocles</a> / <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/monoclesOcean" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#monoclesOcean</a> and <a href="https://mstdn.social/@Stuxhost" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@Stuxhost</a> for a fully-managed Nextcloud at reasonable prices. </li></ul> As for <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/audio" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#audio</a> I'm shure you know <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/audacity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#audacity</a> and <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/LMMS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LMMS</a>... If you use the terminal rather often, consider setting up <a href="https://github.com/kkarhan/misc-scripts/blob/master/bash/.bash_aliases" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">some nifty aliases</a> to make things faster.<ul><li>For example if you want to just check if something is reachable, i.e. internet / network connection works, consider adding <code>function isup() { ping -a -b -c 1 -D "$@"; }</code> to your <code>.bash_aliases</code> file in your <code>$HOME</code> directory so if you use i.e. <code>isup duckduckgo.com</code> it'll do a single run of <code>ping</code> to reach said domain/FQDN/IP...</li></ul> But the final <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/ProTip" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ProTip</a> I can give you is to <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/backup" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#backup</a> your <code>$HOME</code>-directory under <code>/home/yourusername</code> because in it's hidden subdirectories, espechally <code>$HOME/.config/</code> are usually all the settings for your applications stored so in case you need to setup a new machine or restore one from backups, this is where all the minor changes of yours to make your system work best for you are being stored.<ul><li>You may need to press <code>Ctrl+H</code> IN THE File Manager to see hidden files.</li><li>For backups, tools like <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/D%C3%A9j%C3%A0Dup" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DéjàDup</a> make it easy to setup, backup and restore your files as you want or need, including encryption and deduplication.</li></ul> I hope that'll help you not only get started but also get the maximum efficiency out of your distro as a creative tool without fuss.-<a href="https://vscodium.com/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">1</a> -<a href="https://neovim.io/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">2</a><ul><li><a href="https://nvchad.com/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">3</a></li></ul>
