I was interested, but then saw it was just a launchrock sign up. I feel like this might be a bit premature for "Show HN." That might just be me though.

Having a few example gifs would be nice for showing what learning linux using animated gifs means.

Oh I see, the font in the gif appeared very small on my Firefox browser on LinuxMint on desktop display. I didn't think to View Image until you mentioned it upon which it became readable. Scratch my previous suggestion.

Please read the Show HN Guidelines[0].

> If your work isn't ready for people to try out yet, please don't put "Show HN" in the title. Once it's ready, come back and share it then.

> For example, blog posts, email signups, and fundraisers can't be tried out, so they don't count as Show HNs.

Interesting. Do you plan to launch this as a paid service?

At first, it will be free micro-lessons.

I think a tool like showterm would be better (especially since the text remains selectable)…
