I've just completed my Linux course on HackTheBox Academy, and I'm curious about what I should tackle next. Any suggestions or resources would be greatly appreciated!

The best way to learn is by using Linux regularly. Get involved! Experiment with different commands and setups to really get a feel for it.
Check out this resources page that could help you out! It has tons of useful links. Also, make sure to back things up regularly, explore in a VM, and always understand what each command does before hitting 'Enter.' It's key to learning effectively!
It really depends on what you're into! If you're interested in areas like hacking or security, I'd recommend firing up Kali Linux in a virtual machine and getting your hands dirty with the tools. Try some Capture The Flag (CTF) challenges—learning from your mistakes is a big part of the process! You might even delve into advanced stuff like recompiling your kernel or coding in C to understand system-level operations better. Just get familiar with the command line and explore tools like grep, sed, and awk. Don’t shy away from reading the man pages too; they’re super helpful!
Just a heads-up, if you use Kali Linux, avoid learning Wi-Fi pentesting in a VM if possible.
Thanks for the tips!
