If you don’t have Linux experience it would not have helped. That’s coupled with the way people help with Linux, which is often type this thing into the terminal that you don’t really understand.
He was just conditioned by windows and Macos asking for administration prompts for everything. Linux just lets you break a ton more crap way more quickly.
It definitely would have helped in this case, given the warnings he skipped were literally telling him that doing the thing will break his install. He literally had to type a full phrase in to get it to do it.
You don’t need Linux experience to understand that you should pause and reconsider when you get messages like that.
That’s not even tech literacy, that’s just literacy.
That case was a legitimate bug in the specific PopOS version he was using
It was bad luck on every side. Mostly because pop doesn’t update packages during install
Yeah, but he could have read the messages lol

He had just installed the OS, I don’t think he was too concerned about the risk.
I think he’s not concerned about much besides himself.
