Im a total child in terms oft Linux distros. Since im sick of Microsoft i decided to switch my gaming completely to Linux (Xbox to Tower with bazzite, switch to steamdeck). Im quite happy that i installed the distro by my self and found the place where i was able to change the keyboard layout. Because i want to play in my livingroom form the couch i got a bluetooth keyboard. The mouse i already have connected perfectly the keyboard didnt. I tried finding a solution online but soon realised that i have to learn to read the Linux lingo.
Can please someone teach me or point me in the right direction were i can learn the basics. Treat me like i know nothing about distros (because i dont) and PC (because i barely do).
This is also to try the Linux community. Show me what you got.


Imo, yes but the things that are dealbreakers (for me it was ads in the terminal) that Canonical has done are across the spectrum. In the end i felt they were too opinionated (see also why i like kde plasma) and wanted to control the “experience” of using my hardware. Always compromises within any complex system and i thought Debian was a good blank-ish slate for me to work on. Plus i self host quite a bit and am sick of windows licensing and microsft shenanigans so i need something for my servers as well.
I think Ubuntu Servers are still good but Ayo? ADS on the Terminal??? I haven’t used it in a while ig…
