I've been toying with the idea of having a little hobby computer store for years and I've reached the point where I feel I have nothing to lose in trying it.

I don't intend to make it my main source of income but I'd like to have some sort of formal knowledge base to resort to, regardless I've been acting as the tech guy for several years for a lot of people.

Where can I find some good courses/resources, preferably online, to improve my knowledge base?

I'm a long time Linux user so I intend to use my hobby to make some noise about it.

What skills specifically are you wanting to boost?

[-] qyron@sopuli.xyz 5 points 1 year ago

General knowledge on linux, system administration/maintenance, networks and security. Some degree of hardware maintenance would be nice as well.

It's supposed to be a hobby but having some knowledge to ground myself would be nice.

Lawrence Systems and Learn Linux TV YouTube channels are really good and filled with useful tutorials for Linux and FOSS software.

Awesome Open Source is a great channel too.
