- Slackware
-
The oldest linux distro that's actively maintained. Uses rc.X scripts to get things done, unlike most who joined the dark side. This is my daily driver at home. Slackware has a wonderful community at everyone's favorite LQ. They also have a wiki and a guide where you can read everything slackware related.
- OpenBSD
-
The *nix for those paranoid with security. It's reputation in it's realm is unparallelled. OpenBSD is usually branded as a server OS, but many have it running on their desktops and laptops. And btw it's man pages are unmatched in quality.
- The Linux Documentation Project
-
Excellent collection of tips & tricks, guides and everything you'll need with linux. My first steps in bash were with tldp's help.
- Arch wiki
-
I was for a long time an archlinux user and their documentation was the reason. It has topics ranging from installations, desktop customizations and even server-related stuff. The wiki maintaners and writers are a good bunch. I always return to the archwiki, when my google-fu fails me.
- LinuxBBQ
-
The grill where everyone is welcome. They roll out Debian with just enough meat and home-made spices. I learned / still learning a lot from here. The members are all masters with their linux-fu. Join them, and you'll wish why you haven't looked at the source, all this time.
- nixers
-
A community for *nix enthusiasts and hobbyists.
- bunsenlabs
-
The official sucessor to #! linux, that started the minimal desktop ricing frenzy. The infamous #! community lives on through bunsenlabs. #! made editing config files fun. And when you bork the system, a community member would already have the answer to the problem.
- Programming Motherfucker
-
Averaging 31 "fucks" per paragraph, this site is an indispensable resource for every beginner-programmer. The python bit me here, which is also the work of the main guy behind this site.
- Dotshare
-
What's life without dotfiles?
- Daemon forums
-
A forum for everything BSD.

Work flow grokker and supreme overlord. His blog is pretty sweet and always to the point. His screencasts are the reason why I switched to vim.
- alienbob
-
This is a veteran slackware user's blog. He puts up top notch packages and his writings are excellent. I use his repo for most of my linux binaries.

The one man army in BSD land.
- Abraham Sankutty

Demystifies CSS for fun. He is my mentor and good friend.
- venam
-
The webmaster at nixers, he does interesting podcasts and is the author of 2bwm.
- P.K Murugan
-
The man who made BSD cool (atleast for me). His blog posts are epic and his unixporn collection is well known. The blog has been dormant since 2013 though.
- arpinux

The author of the now defunct livarp. The site may be in french, but if you know how to look, you'll get what you want.
