I used Ubuntu once a few years ago but had compatability issues so I went back to windows. Not a great programmer but I’d like to learn. I’m not looking to do much gaming beyond DOOM2 and factorio. Mostly looking for privacy and a way to get back into programming (I have this pipe dream of learning Assembly). I’m not to particular on UI, I can use whatever.

    I know of Arch wiki, but are there wiki’s explaining easier distros? I’m on Nobara, because I want to game, but perhaps I could be learning to configure and install some of these tools to be able to one day use any distro for whatever I wanna do?

      When I started with Debian I found everything I wanted to know with Duckduckgo… “Linux Debian how to…” without exception. And sometimes even the Archwiki helped me. You don’t need a single place with all the knowledge, you just have to practice how to break down your questions into easy to answer bits. Doesn’t matter which distro you use.
