Is there a “How to Linux” somewhere? I’d really like to get beyond using my CachyOS system as gui user, hell even some of the gui stuff is so alien. Felt like a lesser god when I found the repo… But terminal commands are just beyond me
edit i haven’t used that link in awhile and i’m not sure it’s the same experience anymore, some things appear to be missing. if unsure about any step, you can skip it usually. it’s more of a list of things to learn.
Check out “Linux survival” if you’re old school, LabEx if you like experiential learning more, and less explanation. Both offer exercises, both are free, but Labex has a few restrictions for free accounts, and offers a paid tier at like 9 bucks a month. And ofc you don’t have to use the terminal irl, it’s just easier after getting used to it. Most things have a GUI program equivalent, you just have to seek it out. Most of the time.
Edit: And also, Linux Mint and a few others are often recommended to new users for being both similarish to windows and approachable with GUI.
Thank you! I’ve used mint, liked it, tried PopOS, had some trouble with it I can’t remember and instead of solving it moved to CachyOS which promised to solve the issue, and it did. I think it was Bluetooth
Nothing wrong with GUI but yeah there are a lot of resources. I don’t know if I can point you to any because I usually just web search the command for the thing I want to do and add it to a long running note of Linux commands

This helped me quite a lot. You don’t have to use arcolinux either, it’s simply a guide.
