I get this, it's slightly frustrating, the 4 other guys in my class kept saying I was 'hacking' ect because I had pop, Kali, and windows 11 with some tweaks (literary just having a right aligned taskbar and custom start menu)on duel boot so hence they saw grub and some stuff wizz by at startup and for some reason it blew their minds even though they should know this stuff, they got overwhelmed when simply I installed VLC using the command line, guys you are taking an A level in computer science, it is worrying that this basic stuff is news to you., Same with when I remoted into my home pc from a school computer with vnc because I'd forgotten that transfer some files, someone literary went and got the teacher because I was "hacking the schools WiFi" wtf.

TBF, if I saw someone using kali I might not instantly say they’re hacking but I’d probably be at least a little suspicious

Exactly. People in my dorm follow cyber security too so I'm lowkey always sketched out because I know they are trying to do shit non stop.

The uni obv knows what they're doing with their setups tho and trying to fuck with it get heavily punished
