Playing around in the terminal last night, I feel I just started to learn how to really use the computer. 🤯
If you also want to learn about GPG, the best thing you can do is not use any tools but start right from the terminal - all the tools bring more convenience but also take away some of the important leanings! I prefer taking baby steps, learning things one by one instead of skipping, and then later taking advantage of the tools. Otherwise, there would be many missing pieces to pick up later on if you don't have a solid foundation.
The same in Bitcoin - many people skip learning how to protect and restore the seeds due to the liking of convenience, but hey, not your keys, not your coins! The better direction is to learn how to self-custody first and then figure out how to take advantage of the custodial wallets instead of depending on them.
