Wow this is really validating for me to read. I’ve been using Linux for a few years but I’m definitely not a computer expert and am intimidated by the command line.

I’ve always felt like googling every command and arrowing up to find an old entry rather than just googling it again marked me as a fake Linux user, not a real one.

Lol don't feel bad, I can do advanced crazy shit with Linux like pivoting the running OS into RAM so I can unmount the boot drive to do whatever without ever rebooting

But I still [Web Search] commands a shit ton of the time LMAO

You can use Ctrl-R and Ctrl-Shift-R to search through your history instead of having to push up a bajillion times.
