Not that I don’t still love using linux daily, but it is getting a little old having to search for how to do anything even just install a simple program (recently, had a. Deb file to install unifi software that wouldn’t install and had to find a custom script to do it).
I feel like there’s no way I’d ever learn all the random commands I’ve been copying and pasting (and keeping in a text file for later) and can’t help but feel it’s kind of clunky. And I don’t feel like I really know anything of what Im doing. Even man pages baffle me. I’ve been into computing for 20 years but only used linux a little like 8 years ago, but now it’s been my main os on my desktops for probably 2 months. I know, maybe that’s just not long enough. I just don’t like the fact that if I couldn’t search, I’d be completely stuck on a lot of tasks.
Yeah the way the file system works is of the big differences from windows. That can def be a point of frustration.
There are linux approaches to having your /boot, /root, /usr on another partition or drive. It’s been common to separate them for a good while and in fact many or most linux installers ask where you want each of them to live (might be in advanced settings).
It takes time to learn a new system. Keep going!
