Help us improve LinuxJourney.org

Hi all,

I’m a volunteer on the team behind LinuxJourney.org. As many of you know, the original Linux Journey was taken over by LabEx and has become quite outdated. To honor the work of Cindy Quach, our team decided to build a better Linux Journey, a place not only for tutorials, but also for useful tools that help Windows users transition smoothly to Linux.

Linux is built by the community, and we believe this project should be too. We’d love feedback, ideas, and criticism from the Linux community so we can improve it together.

Here are some of the things we’re currently working on:

# Linux Journey Tutorials

All tutorials are already online, but we have ideas to improve them further:

Update content to include topics like Flatpak, Wayland, and systemd
Add short summaries (TL;DRs) for people who want to learn quickly
Include practice questions after lessons

# Windows-to-Linux App Alternatives

One thing we noticed on social media is that people constantly ask for Linux alternatives to Windows applications. Because of that, we created a page listing popular Windows apps and their Linux equivalents.

The list is still incomplete, but before expanding it further we’d like to know:

Would this setup actually be useful to you?
What apps do you think absolutely need to be included?

# “Find Your Linux Distro” Quiz

We also created a small quiz to help new users find a suitable distro.

Right now we’re unsure whether:

The quiz should stay short and simple
We should add more detailed questions
Or create two versions: a quick beginner quiz and a more advanced one

What would you prefer?

# Windows-to-Linux Command Translator

One team member suggested a command translator that converts Windows commands into Linux equivalents. We thought it was a fun idea, but so far it’s one of the least visited pages.

Do you think this is actually useful, or not really?

# Practice Exams

Another idea we have is to add practice exams based on the tutorials, so users can test their Linux knowledge and revisit topics they struggle with.

If you have ideas, suggestions, complaints, bug reports, or things you feel are missing, please let us know. We’d love to make this a genuinely useful starting point for new Linux users.

Thanks!
