I share your frustration but part of this has to be incremental to get people on-boarded and interested. Most people will search for Raspberry Pi, not Linux. Now, will those tutorials point out at the end, “Hey, this applies to most Linux distros, click here to learn more.”? Would be nice but probably not. Also, in my old age and as a parent, I also search for the same. And I’m the kid that installed Slackware from floppies at 11. Could I figure out which commands to write into the current Debian distribution that Raspberry Pi uses? Definitely. But I have limited focus time with my kids. I’d love for him to learn the basics too, but that will come. At 5, I just need to wow him with all the cool things he can build. The details can come later.
