Started A Beginners Series For Linux

I would recommend doing an rsync tutorial video. That is a very powerful file treansfer, sync program

Episode 4 now out : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3hmCZ1DF30M
My top 3 versions of linux for desktops and embedded devices like routers

If i may critique, Doing a top 3 this early in the series was a bit unecessary in my opinion, if anything it was confusing as the direction of the series is supposed to be a begginers guide so to speak. Someone expecting tutorials or a walkthrough would be swayed by this, If anyting I would have put out the episode 4 video as a standalone video on a different day of the week, and continued with the tutorials and walkthroughs on Monday... Just my opinion.

yeah I understand I was doing a top 3 of some good Linux distro's for beginners to use but ill be doing tutorials only now for this series

Episode 5 Now Out basic ftp command usage

just used obs and that what I had my settings at for game capture :)

Episode 6 is here : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=51TzVfloplk

I think the series has gone beyond the scope of "beginners", no offense, The first 3 videos were in the right direction... I just think beginners are mostly trying to learn the terminal and commands, updating software, looking for compatible apps/plugins/programs for a similar Windows experience and backing up files and systems. The last couple of videos seem more intermediate to high for a Linux first timer or subjective in my opinion.

yeah sorry for that just ran out of ideas for the beginners part of it but if you have any ideas comment them and ill make a video on it

see below

ok ill go over some alternative programs on monday I did a few in the first episode but ill do more like install java or flash (even with all their security risks some people still need them) etc

using rsync to backup directories, people always want to back up files. Maybe write a bash script or explain rsync switches and syntax. Like you said, installing flash and java, libre office functionality, pdf/comic viewer/ebook readers or converter software, compression programs like gzip, bz2, p7zip, or setting up a cron job to automate things.

there are so many things beginners usually ask.

ok this week ill do a video on alternative programs and next week ill do a video on some basic programming and automation

Episode 7 here : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JtlejJcQCAg

Episode 8 is here : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=roB0yBXIFLA basic command line automation

what should the next video be about
