Same with Linux. Is there a problem Search it. Someone had that problem before. Shit even basic AI can help you out if you can't quickly solve the issue.

Yeah, they had the same problem.. 13 years ago, and their solution doesnt work on modern OS's due to package changes and command depreciations.

Thats how about 99% of my internet searches for linux problems end up.

For me I got better results if I used the actual distro + version in the search, Linux is to general a term, but say Fedora 43 + problem would really narrow down the amount of results and also prevent really old answers to pop up.
