Download and install Linux in this tutorial that covers how to choose a distribution, how to use the install command with Windows Subsystem for Linux, create a bootable USB for Bare-metal, or set up a Virtual Machine.
Something I’ve often wondered: Comparing the size of the group that uses self-hosted and F/OSS stuff like Gitea to the size of the group that uses Github, et al. I wonder how we stack up as a measure of success.
I would say that it is still used by many projects, it keeps offering features and improving it, not going worse, right? But if they even do something bad to Linux, we can just fork as we do with any other open source project, and we improve it.

Good luck with that… xD
Microsoft has a lot of luck with that.
But with closed source, GitHub (still closed) for example it’s still alive, and we can still use GitLab, Gitea…, he has no power on Open Source. 😁
