Although its just another OS, linux does have a major learning curve for the common GUI enjoyer like me.

When you all were first learning linux, did you have a specific resource you learned from? Was it more like doing projects and learning on the way through forums?

    Started dual booting it with Windows and generally tried to do the same things on Linux that I did on Windows, when I ran into an issue I attacked it for a while and if I couldn’t solve it I went to Windows for a while and then went back to Linux to try again. Pretty exponential improvement as a result due to my familiarity with Linux replacing Windows. Also coincided with Proton getting better of course and once every game I played ran on Linux the last reason to boot Windows was gone and I deleted that partition.

    Edit: Also, Archwiki is magic, especially if you’re on an Arch based distro (not Manjaro, that shit is terrible), I personally use EndeavourOS with the Cinnamon DE cause it’s familiar to me being relatively similar to the Win7/Win10 layout.
