As a tech fan, but not a professional programmer, this only took me a couple hours to figure out :-) Basically the moment you start to use Linux desktop, you will immediately start googling how to twist this and that. Maybe in an hour, you will start to go to this and that folders to change this and that cfg files. For me, I quickly realize that 1) I won't remember what I did and I don't know all the implications of those changes I made, and 2) I don't want to spend time on those stuff. |

That's why I keep a log of everything. Any error message I encounter, any change I made and why. Neatly organised, in an org (org-mode) file.
I make exactly the same as I do in programming project or server configuration: keep notes, explaining to my later self (and to others) what I did and why.

As I commented already: then you're forced to adapt to things others thought it would be best for you instead of adapting the system to your way of working.
