They’re an .ml, so yeah, exactly

I’ve been using Linux desktop as a daily driver for a little under 10 years now and I’m still discovering ways I could be doing things better. There isn’t some magic tutorial that somebody can give you here which will suddenly have you as competent with Linux as you are with Windows. Try things, break things, when things break, look into what you can do to fix them. Keep system snapshots and backups of your personal files so you don’t have any data loss if things go wrong. And snapshots are useful for unfucking a system that you’ve just fucked.

Sorry if you don’t want to hear this, but you kinda have to figure it out yourself. Thankfully, for specific issues and questions, there is a ton of material out there, and people are generally pretty happy to help.

It’s not like anyone cares once you have the job anyway

Windows for a long time before I knew what OSes were. I never liked how locked down MacOS is so I’ve never used that. Then I tried Ubuntu in college, mostly to play with. Then tried Arch, fucked up my system a couple times and reinstalled, then tried Manjaro because I’d heard it was more stable and less fuss. And now I’m back on Arch. I think I’ve finally mostly figured it out over the last decade lol, I haven’t had a problem with my install in years.

I’ve always been particularly revolted by powershell syntax and utilities

As far as uni workflow goes, I don’t know what you do, but LibreOffice worked just fine for me in college for papers and such. Sheets is definitely inferior to excel if you’re doing serious spreadsheet work, but Writer works perfectly fine as a Word clone for simple word processing. My professors never commented on it.
