Learn VIM with the OpenVim Interactive Tutorial

Software development is flooded with IDE's and text editors, the general consensus being that VSCode is the most popular. What about Vim?
Hardcore Linux devs who like to get their hands dirty still prefer the timeless and venerable Vim. Personally, I think that anyone working with a Linux shell should first learn to use Vim. I use it for writing Perl, shell scripts or manipulating text without craving the bells and whistles that VSCode offers.
When I started out with Vi(m), there were just a few text-based tutorials, but now they come in a variety of formats, and certainly when I was starting out I would have found such a good flashy and interactive guide most helpful.

Greenplum's Cloudberry Fork Enters Apache Incubator

  Cloudberry is the open source equivalent of Greenplum. Now it is fostered by the Apache Foundation as it acquires incubating status. It all began about six months ago. Greenplum's Github repositories was archived and went dark. This meant no more free new releases or security and bug fixes for its users. Why? Because in May 2024, Tanzu made the decision to close-source the project. https://www.i-programmer.info/news/84-database/17694-greenplums-cloudberry-fork-enters-apache-incubator-.html
