I’ve just used Ubuntu since the early 2000s. I know people have plenty of grievances with Ubuntu and Canonical but Ubuntu has always just worked for me. There is tons of documentation and the user base is so huge that it’s easy to get questions answered.

I will have to try that, I didn’t know that functionality existed, thanks!

I’m not a programmer but I do this on the Linux command line all the time to find a command I used days or weeks ago. Or I’ll spend 20 minutes grepping history instead. All to avoid spending 5 minutes reading the manpage so I can remember which flags and arguments I used.
