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?

    It started around 2014/15 for me. Was a big Mac user since OS X, but the increasing walled-garden aspect Apple was beginning to implement was a major deciding factor. I had tried out Ubuntu in a VM sometime around 2007/08, but it never really clicked and was content on Mac at the time.

    I started researching Linux and made the jump onto Linux Mint. So many of the roadblocks and issues I felt were becoming very apparent on Mac were suddenly non-existent, and I continued on just self-learning and exploring what’s possible. Now getting close to a decade later after jumping from Linux Mint to Debian to now Void, I could never go back to anything else
