So it was a fake root prompt which tricked the bots into believing that they logged in successfully but in reality the prompt could do nothing on the system?

And now I’m on fedora 39 kinoite because I like the immutable image-based features such as being able to build my own images in the cloud and being able to roll back to any previous version if something messes up in an upgrade. And also I have more control over what software is installed on the host system because it’s all written in my Dockerfile so if I want to uninstall something and all of its dependencies, I’m just gonna remove it from the Dockerfile.
My first installed Linux distro was Ubuntu 5.10. I started experimenting with Linux because my neighbour at the time said good things about Linux. He used windows himself but he also heard good things about Linux and spread the word in curiousity. Eventually I was the one of us who made the jump.

Yes haha. This way we can get back to the times where 4 characters passwords were sufficient 😃
Indeed. Linux nowadays works out of the box if you choose a distro such as Ubuntu or Fedora.
The Wifi issue thing is an old story which was a reality back in 2005 when I started using Linux.
@possiblylinux127 Fedora FTW 🙏

And then enterprise Linux on your home desktop?
@The_Picard_Maneuver haha true. never google this kind of stuff.
I had for about 2 years. Went back to Linux about a year ago and sold the MacBook recently.
@possiblylinux127
What do you mean with other way around?
@Xttweaponttx
Yeah i agree. The ad stuff is really bad. Having ads in the browser is enough. I don’t want it in my OS. But even all the way back in Windows 7 some people busted Windows in “calling home” when something was entered in the search field in the Start menu. This was caught using the ZoneAlarm firewall.
