    I was in your same situation about 2 years ago. Made the switch to ubuntu and haven't looked back. While the learning curve isn't that steep, in the begining it can be a bit daunting. I'm big on reasearch and reading a ton before I do anything, and I still do this, but sometimes the best thing to do is jump in and get dirty and just get some experience doing things, don't worry so much about trying to do every perfect the first time. At least that was one of my take away from transitioning.

    My other suggestion, and this isn't everyone's opinion, but learn to use docker sooner than later. I really like how you can tinker with things, and if something goes awry you can remove the container and start over. The linuxserver.io images for a lot of services are well maintained and have worked flawlessly for me.
