I have some basic experience but I wanna be proficient and have a cli based workflow; I’m currently on Arch with GNOME

    Linux Journey is a good one for the basics. But I would agree with the other commentors here, and say the best thing you can do for yourself is to just use it day to day.

    I once heard something about learning other languages. Your brain has two methods of learning, one is the academic, and another is practical. When you learn something purely academic, your brain isn’t prioritizing it as much, but if you’re doing it daily, and you need to be able to do it, then your brain goes “oh man, I better pick this up quick” and starts kicking more of your subconscious power into learning it. I think using the command line is going to be a similar deal.

      I recently had that kind of feeling !! Not much, but I recently learned to select things in nano (alt + a) and It sticked right away and improved a bit my workflow and speed !

      But right now, I’m having a hard time remembering correctly to navigate through my text ! Specially because I’m switching from linux to windows and mac ! And all these navigation keys don’t work between OSes xD

      Sometimes I try to navigate Notepad like I do with nano and my brain goes “Huuuh?” :/
