I’ve got a Pop_OS system76 machine that runs well straight out of the box. I love it and it’s my daily driver. However I’d like to learn more about how it works, Linux internals and how to use it to the best of its capabilities. I want to learn about things like system-d Wayland, error logging (there seems to be a few of them) directory structure and drivers. For instance, how do I know that my and GPU is being leveraged to the fullest?

I DONT want to build a system from the ground up, which I expect to be a common suggestion.

I’d prefer to read literature, blogs, and articles relevant to me, my system and not dated.

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance

      Way ahead of you but that only scratches the surface of Linux. I’ve got a docker compose stack with a bunch of services, DNS and reverse proxies… But that doesn’t teach me about the internals on my workstation

        Gotcha. I feel like I learned a lot of Linux stuff by standing up and configuring servers (log analysis, iptables, systemd…). I guess that’s the stuff I’m interested in though. I’ve never cared about compiling packages or tweaking the kernel for example.
