Hey everyone! I'm new to the world of Linux and I'm eager to get some hands-on experience. I'm looking for the latest recommendations on resources for learning the basics. I understand that part of learning involves dealing with real issues on my system, but I'm curious about specific resources that can help me out. I'm specifically not looking for YouTube videos, though I'm open to any suggestions you might have. I currently have one system running Linux Mint and another running Debian, but I'm open to trying out other distributions if they're recommended for learning. Thanks, everyone!
