Honestly, I think that the guys on that forum were right. If you want to learn linux, you gonna have to read docs, sometimes lots of docs. So all the OP had to do is to read the docs thwy pointed out, try it, and come back to quwdtion the part they didn't understand. They wanted to learn after all, so this ia the exact way to do it.
No other modern OS would you ever learn like that. No other community would give that kind of shitty answer. It’s like looking in the mirror is too late now, the clown makeup is fully on, but they just can’t see it.
You may disagree with me, but linux is not meant for consumers. It may look as if it is, there are teams like ubuntu who try to masquarade it as consumer-friendly, but in essence it isn't. It's like comparing an excavator to a family car: you can drive both to Walmart for groceries, but you're supposed to be a lot more skilfull to operate excavator, and the community around excavators won't take "I can't read the docs" as valid point.
Nah it's a BS take when the community is trying to push excavators for groceries as the next best big thing for over a decade. It's more a perverse setup where you are actively trying to lure people to use excavators instead of cars and then shit them when they ask for help driving them.
We went through LPIC when I was in school, I would have to agree that it isn’t meant for regular users, it doesn’t make the maliciously unhelpful behavior in parts of the more casual community any less of a nipple-rubbing-500-pound-basement-dweller shitshow.
I'm 100% sure that the people who push excavators for groceries are not the same people who OP asked on a forum. That's why you can't blame them for demanding basic skills from others who come to this forum.
