Congratulations, I guess? Not everybody is lucky enough to be in your situation.

  No luck needed. It was a series of intentional choices anyone could make if they wished. I co-run two tech companies in silicon valley, maintain several online communities, organize events, have an active social life, travel a lot, have many tech hobbies, go to shows and events, etc. I am hardly the amish person people tend to imagine. FOSS software can work for virtually anyone in the modern world that wants freedom.

    Who has the technical skill to use a command line and/or a build system. So maybe 5% of the population on a good day.

      You can install graphene os on a phone using a USB cable and a web page.

    It takes a lot of luck to be able to live in the Bay Area in the first place, and a lot of luck to be able to "co-run two tech companies in Silicon Valley". If you think this is something anyone can Just Do if they decide to do it, you have fallen pretty hard for a certain kind of capitalist propaganda.
