I just fucking can’t with windows anymore. I’d preach about it but I imagine you’ve heard it all. I have minimal computer expertise.
I use my PC mainly for streaming, downloading torrent files who’s copyright you don’t need to worry about, and light gaming. Usually just messing with New Vegas mods.
If someone knows of a good YouTube channel or guide or something written for andelder millennial caveman I would be grateful.
Edit: after having been recommended mint OS and giving it a quick Google, I got this! I haven’t fucked with anything linux scince the early aughts. And holy shit has that come a ways. Guess I remembered back and got a little intimidated. Mint is downloading now. As a small f.u. I booted up edge to do it. Ty you beautiful people!
“Need a good resource to learn Linux”
You’re looking at it.
As others have said, learn by using it.
If you get stuck, do a search. If you come up empty, ask us. We’re happy to help (unless you use the wrong distro).
Yeah osmosis from Lemmy was my first step. Just soaking up the lingo and normal complaints and I’d be like “oh wow good to know”
Then I started spinning them up and it’s slowly getting clearer.
Then throw proxmox and some light self hosting into the mix and I’m learning a bit more.
It helps to have a project to care about, like one for me was spinning up a game server in a Linux container, definitely helped me focus on issues and follow the searching rabbit hole to the endpoints. My eyes start glazing over going too deep into networking or kernel stuff
