I believe there are several Linux-related topics that could be valuable for this cybersecurity community. While I'm not a Linux expert, here are a few suggestions:

Security features in the Linux kernel: An overview of features like ASLR and cgroups, including their strengths and limitations.
Securing Linux servers: Practical guides, how-tos, and tools (e.g., Auditd, Sysdig) for hardening Linux systems.
Vulnerabilities and detailed writeups: Sharing in-depth analyses to learn from real-world mistakes. (But please, let's avoid posting every CVE. 😉)

Those topics seems a little advanced for a Linux user without cyber security knowledge though. I personally don't understand any of them lol. I know what hardening is, what CVEs are; but except for few anecdotes like the logj4, xz, etc, I don't think I'd know enough to talk about the cyber security side of linux.

I was thinking more along the side of daily life things. Like how programmer like linux because it's easier to develop things and manage environments and cross program compatibility.

You're right, these are definitely some advanced topics. But no need to know everything yourself, if you stumble upon one of these topics during your research, you might want to post them here.
