I'm looking to learn the basics of Linux commands specifically for the Steam Deck version of Linux. Does anyone have suggestions on websites or resources to get started on this journey?

There's a wiki page with a bunch of resources that might help you: www.reddit.com/r/linux4noobs/wiki/faq. Also, look into searching their subreddit for more focused learning resources.
I found this book super helpful: linuxcommand.org/tlcl.php. It covers a lot and really helped me grasp the basics of the command line.
For Steam Deck specifically, keep in mind it runs SteamOS 3 based on Arch Linux. Learning how to use Distrobox can be super useful for your learning process. Just dive into that!
You might want to check out linuxjourney.com. It's a popular starting point for Linux beginners. Also, if you're looking to get comfortable with the terminal in a fun way, cmdchallenge.com gamifies that experience really well!
Using AI chat tools can be a cool way to generate notes and explanations for your learning. I've been integrating those into apps like Notion for organizing my study material, but be careful not to rely on them too much; they can sometimes give you misleading info.
I wouldn't suggest solely depending on AI for learning Linux. You might end up with inaccurate information that's harder to untangle later!
