Oh yeah, it slows things down, for sure. But if you never used anything like vim before, that slow pace can benefit the learning experience (at least that happened to me when I started). Bottom line is: vim is a lot. Be patient and it will get easier (and faster) over time.

awww, thanks!

I’d love to add more material about containers, if you have any recommendations please share.

Agreed, Oracle is as devilish as IBM, but I didn’t see any major discrepancies with their Ubuntu version (so far) like I saw on IBM Cloud. It’s a cloud option, but definitely not my first pick.

No need to reboot, it’s just a recommendation after your first update/upgrade to get any kernel changes in. You won’t need to reboot for a long time after that.

Nice to know! Thanks for sharing.

It’s really up to you. I’ve been doing some improvements to the material lately, so next month will be slightly different (but not much).

The up-to-date version is always available at https://linuxupskillchallenge.org/ and you can track the changes at https://github.com/livialima/linuxupskillchallenge if you want to follow it more closely.
