Como lengua materna, el español. (For my mother language, Spanish)

English being my second language.

日本語も少しできます。(I can also understand a little bit of Japanese). My first attempt at learning it was like 13 years ago, when I was 14. A later attempt was 7 years ago, didn't last much on them for lack of organisation but still retained a little bit more of knowledge. My third round is still ongoing and has crossed the year mark).

Besides those, some time during my high school days I also studied a bit of French and mostly Italian. I wouldn't be able to speak either fluently but I may grasp a little bit more than relying solely on mutual intelligibility.

Some languages I have interest in learning even if just a bit, in no particular order: Mandarin, Russian, Korean, German, Hokkien, Cantonese.

Born in '97, childhood went through the 2000's and early 2010's

I'd say a solid LatAm Gen Z

First OS: I think it was Windows 98. I have then gone through XP, Vista, 7 and staying at 10 for as long as i can.

First Linux distro: Ubuntu 10.04 or 10.10 don't remember clearly but it certainly was before GNOME 3 and in a VM. From then i have also run Fedora, Debian and most recently Linux Mint and Pop! OS in VMs as well. Maybe one day i finally set up a dual boot...

Not me per se but rather my father. For our third (and up to this day latest) roadtrip to Las Vegas in 2014. My parents were still not very smartphone-savy and I wouldn't have my first until a year later. That time we really did a lot of roaming around the city beyond just the Boulevard and surroundings.

Maybe yes, Maybe not.

Most of the youtubers I used to watch years ago have become full-time Twitch streamers and their channels now only serve for highlights. My currently watched content revolves mostly around memes of specific games (most of which may also be available in other platforms at the expense of subtitles).

At least for now I can say that I could live without Youtube as ~90% of my entertainment on the web currently comes from outside the platform.
