operations-mediawiki-config VS archwiki

> Configuration is just a short artifact. It's not a creative work and is therefore not copyrightable at all, whether by AGPL or otherwise.

I'm doubtful. For example https://github.com/wikimedia/operations-mediawiki-config is wikipedia's config. It is not short, and much of it is complex enough i think it would be copyrightable (ianal)

I agree though a very traditional list of key value pairs that are simple facts like where to find the db, might lack creativity to be copyrighted (ianal). But how many real deployed systems have that simple a config. More generally i would prefer that the license was less ambigious about this especially in an international context (e.g. rules are totally different in uk over what can be copyrighted)

> I'm not convinced obscurity helps against spam at all. DKIM and blocklists have done much more against email spam than any form of "security by obscurity" corporate scheme has.

Gmail et al use techniques beyond dkim that are secret. However i meant more like web spam where you can't just rely on source vouching for users. For example on wikipedia there is a feature where admins can write "code" that block patterns in edits. When used against persistent vandals, they are often secret lest they use the info to adjust behaviour. That's the type of thing i mean.

> if you are coordinating with the developers, then you have their explicit permission to temporarily withhold those changes (AGPL copyright holders can still grant exceptions to the license)

That only works if one entity holds all the copyright. Even then, does that mean forks cannot have coordinated disclosure?

Create the technical documentation of your project You can use any of the following options: * A wiki, like the ArchWiki that uses MediaWiki * Read the Docs, used by projects like Setuptools. Check Awesome Read the Docs for more examples. * Create a website * Create a blog, like the documentation of Blowfish, a theme for Hugo.

What would you expect to find in that repo? The underlying software for wiki.archlinux.org is mediawiki and that is not based on git.

Usually i recommend linux mint for beginners but hyprland may be a little bit hard to install there. So maybe in your case the best option is an arch based system with a graphical installer. A lot of people here recommend endeavourOS. Download the iso, install it to a VM and take your first steps. Once you are a little bit familiar with it, you may try to set up dual boot and run it on bare metal. Take small steps, backup your data and read the arch wiki.

For reference: Arch Linux is at https://www.archlinux.org, wiki at https://wiki.archlinux.org, and the ISO at https://archlinux.org/download/. Supported install methods are here and here only. This subreddit supports archlinux.org exclusively. Join us!

That's the Windows way. It's a bad fit for Linux, because there is no one true obsessively-backwards-compatible Linux.

The good news is we don't need it: Linux isn't a black box, so we don't need to guess or study its behavior. We can look it up instead. The goal here is to construct understanding from documentation, as opposed to deconstructing behavior from testing.

Some great starting points to get your bearings are:

- https://wiki.archlinux.org/

- https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Main_Page

- man pages

Since this no support forum, r/linuxquestions would be better suited for your question (rule #1). The reddit situation is indeed sad. But there are other sources of information: Have a look at the Arch wiki, especially the pages regarding the Arch build system. If you need further guidance, ask at the EndeavourOS forum, the folks over there are always willing to help.
