Prot is one of the most well spoken, humble, deliberate and wholesome people I've ever come across. Absolutely crazy to think that he came to Emacs and Lisp without any technical background and just started contributing.

Cheers to you, Prot!

The speed at which he picked it up with almost no background is phenomenal. He learned Linux/UNIX in 2016 and only began to use Emacs in 2019.

Another fun fact: He main goals with these videos is to practice his English.
