I don't think downgrading the curl library is promising here. curlftpfs seems to be unmaintained. I recommend looking for alternatives or alternative workflows.

Fixed in curl, but not in a curlftpfs, apparently. Look at the comments on the accepted answer.

Seems to be a known bug: https://github.com/curl/curl/discussions/14299

Error setting curl:

That doesn't seem like a complete error message to me. Is there any more information? Maybe with the -d (debug) flag?

It really depends on your approach to learning things. If you're looking for a systematic approach, I really like No Starch Press books for that sort of thing: How Linux Works or Your Linux Toolbox (for a more playful approach).

But in the end there's really no substitute for installing Debian on bare metal and tinkering with it. I would really recommend Debian, because it's the archetype of how Linux systems have been working for the last 30 years or so. Arguably, this is currently changing, but come to grips with Debian before you dabble in more modern approaches to system management.

Same! This works really well.

Nice, that looks interesting! What's LLLTW, is it that alphabet?

Also, fascinating, I had only read about toki pona before, your message took me like 20 minutes to translate with https://nimi.li/

Great idea, now we just have to wait for the world to adopt Toki pona and we will be communicating at lightning speed

Reproductive biology suggests that everyone is female for the first time period after conception, since male characteristics (like genitalia) do not develop until later. (Although from cursory reading that seems to be contentious, there is a lot of semantics involved in both sides of the argument.)

Just want to point out that, while it's a mess in practice, there is a correct place for these files and the problem is that many applications ignore it. Configuration files should be written to an aptly named folder in ~/.config/ (or more precisely, in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME which is set to ~/.config/ in most systems). ~/.local/share/ (or $XDG_DATA_HOME, respectively) is for user data, which is different from config.
