Using Linux isn't that difficult. You have to remember a few commands, their syntax, and how to look things up on the web or read a book. Speaking a language is probably harder than using Linux for basic stuff.
This comment here is peak Linux, and a perfect example of that xkcd comic.
99% of people probably couldn't even tell you what a syntax is. Let alone how it's relevant to using Linux
Linux, like all Unix systems, even mostly comes with built-in documentation.
IMO the built in documentation is kind of hard to digest, but it gets easier with practice and I'm glad that it's there. Thinking about it, some good search engine for manpages that doesn't require messing with VIM or emacs would be good. That probably exists somewhere.
Would explainshell.com suffice?
Apart from the online manpage archives, there's man -k and grepping the manpage directories, but that's not really ideal (although that's what I did when I started Unix a long time ago).
There are help browsers like in kde which are kind of nice but I'm not sure if they do a full text search. But they're nice for info pages.
Can confirm, I'm an idiot and I have a couple machines running various distros.
