    I did get wwiv installed in linux, but I still have a few more steps with it.

    Its the high cost of subscriptions, its the fsking AI, its the bloated operating systems.

    I left over 20 years ago, and I'm glad I did it back then, so I don't have to "rush to the exit" to avoid things like this.

    It will take a bit of getting used to, but well worth it.

    You can do it. Been on linux for years now. What distro did you choose? What issues are you having? I would love to help.
