Although its just another OS, linux does have a major learning curve for the common GUI enjoyer like me.

When you all were first learning linux, did you have a specific resource you learned from? Was it more like doing projects and learning on the way through forums?

I think I switched from Windows 10 to Linux when I became conscious of online privacy due to things like the Snowden leaks. I tried a few distros and settled on Debian, initially with a GUI, but it wasn't too hard to get used to the CLI for package management. I just looked things up whenever I encountered a problem and gradually learned more about Linux-related topics
