Nice to know you're enjoying Linux :P
I think that later on in your adventure, you'll notice that you don't actually need a distro that's hard to maintain in order to do the hardcore stuff.
Going back to more tame distros (Mint, Debian, Fedora, Solus) may actually suit you better, even for said tasks.
Cybersecurity and "stopping hackers" are very extensive and complex topics. It's kinda like a mix of many areas of knowledge (software, hardware, coding, internet of things, etc...)
So one advice I think I can give you is that there is a "tool" of hacking that is often overlooked: Social Engineering.
You're going to feel right at home with TempleOS.
Terry Davis.
Welp, here's sincerely hoping this is not a bad omen.
And he's also the best fucking programmer of all time.
That sounds like quite the combo, hope you're doing alright. I'll probably pass on calling you schizo though if that's ok. I had just assumed you were shitposting tbh, but whatever floats your boat. Hope you enjoy the community and the Linux experience
