You say that, but the bash manual is an absolute delight. (unironically).
Super clear, comprehensive but straight to the point, everything you might want to know is there in logical headings.
I struggled with bad bash code I'd pick up on websites and online tutorials, until I decided to just do `man bash` one day. Went from 10% to 99.999% bash proficient overnight.
Whenever I need to check something related to bash these days, 99% of the time the man page resolves my query within seconds. Occasionally you have to do `help [TAB]` and get the help for the specific built in instead. The bits not covered by the above two points are extremely rare.
