As someone who grew up using windows, is there a series of tutorials or videos y’all recommend to learn Linux? I find myself running into issues, trying to find solutions online, and not even understanding the instructions. I’m sure most of this comes from not knowing bash (which I’ve started to learn using https://labex.io/linuxjourney).
Background: I’m a very competent windows user. I’ve built my own PC, etc. I mostly use it for gaming and Internet now but want to start self hosting some things. Oh, and I’m running bazzite.
Anyway, just trying to get out from Microsoft’s thumb.
Cheers.
Edit: thanks for the replies everyone. I haven’t had a chance to read through them all yet; the whole family is suddenly sick.


I see that OP has already gone off to do other things, but I agree with this. Ubuntu is fine for bare functionality like running a server, but as a beginner (or a very tired expert) Mint or Pop! is where you want to go for the long-term. Literally damn near straight out of the box functionality.
Kids these days have it easy. Back in my day, we had to git clone source code from random github pages we stumbled across in chatrooms. It was like delving into the darkest part of the hidden library, knocking thrice upon the door, and pleading for mercy and wisdom from the Greybeards.
