The internet was already present then. The Arch wiki though…

Well, I'll just hope things are better now and give it a go

I don't feel like the Linux communities were really a friendly space in the early 2000s. And the Ubuntu forums felt like they became powerful in 2010. I played around with Linux briefly in 2005 and felt like there wasn't much support for solving certain issues.

And when in doubt, ask chatgpt. It may give you a wrong answer but it can point you in the right direction.

And you can always send me a question if you run up against something. I'm not an expert by any means but I've made it my daily driver for a couple years now.
