  @martinosacchi@mastodon.social @pafurijaz@mastodon.social “sudo” is short for “superuser do”. It is a widely used system administration tool that lets you run commands with “superuser” privileges, so you can change and access pretty much any part of a system. For security, your account needs to be on a list and you need to enter a password to use it. If left unmaintained, bugs won’t be fixed or necessary changes made. This could result in security holes allowing systems to be compromised.
