From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I NEED TO LEARN HOW TO GIT.
https://media.tenor.com/Te4dsU13mkMAAAAM/bernie-mac-smh.gif
My best recommendation is a good git GUI. I really like Gitkraken (proprietary & freemium unfortunately, but a pretty generous free plan). I'm now more advanced than many of my coworkers because it helped me form an intuitive understanding of git.
Don't worry, the basics are really easy to ~~git~~ get down, you can read any beginner guide to start trying it out, for example this one on baeldung seems pretty alright by a quick skim, or, if you prefer a more playful approach, definitely check out ohmygit.
If you want to try a git hoster as well, make a GitHub profile if you want to go where most everyone is, so you can also easily contribute to others' projects, otherwise, if you care about staying on a free platform, make an account on Codeberg, fewer people, but all great like-minded free software supporters
..or make one on both, ngl
Thanks. I do have a codeberg, a Gitlab and a github account (all I have here are my blacklist and white lists). If my kids allow me, I'll start swimming on this waters this weekend. I've only seen how you guys basically hold repose of pretty much anything and automate workflows and configurations so easily, it's amazing.
Good luck! It can get complicated so I know how you feel looking at weird configurations that do magic
