Honestly this is good enough for most people. Some may say you risk fucking up the os/computer but windows guides carry the same risk.
the linux equivalent of earning your wings is attempting a simple fix and somehow fucking up so bad you have to start over from a fresh install
Yeah... I just wanted to connect my phone via adb. Ended up removing myself from the sudo-ers group. Since I did not know how to fix this problem at the time this caused a fresh install.
I'm sad because this is true.
Also,
man -kis a lost, dark art.You don't need to in Linux either. You can do most everything from a gui.
Depends on the distro. Some are more tailered to GUIs and some are more tailored to TUIs.
Of course but Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, Mint and KDE are all pretty good in the gui when standard
Agreed, but I've still run into some instances where a program is not available in the official store and you need to add the repo via terminal.
Not as common as it used to be. I'm just saying.

Even then, you can usually add via the gui even if it's a bit complicated. Flatpaks and snaps make that way easier.
This is true.
