I mean if you know how to write firmware you don't really count as a Linux noob, regardless of your lack of experience with linux
Does writing Arduino code really discount me from being a Linux noob? I still think I need to learn python to implement my macros rather then rely on GOME keybinds and bash scripts.
I also need to learn how to make a GNOME theme. I just want the default but with a different accent color. I used to use an extension, but it's out of date and doesn't convince pop-os to be in dark mode.
Damn... Every time I start talking about my experience I just start rambling about barely connected things.
To me, noob implies not only lack of experience but also lack of skill, so yeah in that sense I would say it does discount you somewhat ^^
Do learn python, you'll pick it up super easily and will be amazed by the simplicity of the syntax (but perhaps also slightly grossed out by the duck typing and use of whitespace as syntax)
