I’m just going to be vulnerable for a minute here. I met the first person in real life who had similar server-y linux-y obsessions to me and we’d send eBay links of systems to drool over to eachother. They ended up being a terrible person but hid it from me pretty well until they couldn’t anymore and now I no longer have someone to chat with about those things.

So um, I guess I’m open for applications for the position of “nerdy friend who I nerd too hard with about network infrastructure and Linux packages” now

    Im sorry that this happened to you. It sucks to learn that someone isn’t who you thought they are after you trust them.

    I’m a network engineer by trade and a Linux enthusiast, and happily apply for the position 😊

    I hope that one day there will be a larger community of network engineers on Lemmy, however it seems that most did not make the migration off of that old site.
