Linux for hackers - My edition

Introduction

Linux is a very wide and general term that always has some overlaps with the term UNIX, it won't matter for the scope of this tutorial but it's a good thing to know the difference and what is what but I will be calling the system that you are (or should) be using to follow this tutorial as linux.

I always had that inner sound telling me that whatever I am doing or going to do isn't my best or I'm just not RTFM the intended way after many tears spent reading the arch Reddit cul... c-community, I decided that I was going to have a read, and I chose instead of reading the manual as my start (although it helped me a lot) but most of the time I was just reading it to tell people to RTFM instead of thinking of an excuse for why I don't know how to fix Arch's black screen after an update.

Although I chose arch linux for some personal reasons, it won't matter what distro you're using, the key difference would be your package manager that I won't through at you at the beggining so you don't critisize me but imma leave it at the end of this tutorial in case you wanted to know.
