MODERATORS
Also it's a valuable teaching tool simply switching to Linux. Prior to switching I was VERY rusty with the command line. hell I was even extremely rusty with vim/emacs since on Windows most of the time I was using Sublime Text for work.
Once I switched to Linux it made me learn the command line again, made me learn vim again, and then the revelation that doing things via the command line/terminal is actually faster than utilizing a GUI. It taught me A LOT of things. how to effectively partition drives, trouble shoot, set up things, etc. taught me languages I never really used before. Switching to Linux made me fall in love with using the computer again. It was like I was a kid back in the 90s.
Now I can install things like Void, Arch or even FreeBSD and get them setup with a WM like DWM without having to look at a manual or anything.
Same for all of that, hadnt touched vim since I had to my freshman year of college c++
