As someone who grew up using windows, is there a series of tutorials or videos y’all recommend to learn Linux? I find myself running into issues, trying to find solutions online, and not even understanding the instructions. I’m sure most of this comes from not knowing bash (which I’ve started to learn using https://labex.io/linuxjourney).

Background: I’m a very competent windows user. I’ve built my own PC, etc. I mostly use it for gaming and Internet now but want to start self hosting some things. Oh, and I’m running bazzite.

Anyway, just trying to get out from Microsoft’s thumb.

Cheers.

Edit: thanks for the replies everyone. I haven’t had a chance to read through them all yet; the whole family is suddenly sick.

      I’m using bazzite because I heard it is gaming focused. It runs fine but I keep running into little things. For instance, I couldn’t get a game that was supposedly steam deck verified to run. I eventually got it working. Just had to tinker for a few hours.
