nowadays there's not even that much to learn, probably biggest difference is just the file system, and getting out of the horrid habit of downloading programs from the browser.

Where do you download programs from?

The repository of the distro that you're running or flathub. Sometimes also an AppImage from a GitHub/GitLab releases page if it's an obscure program.
