This isn't really the right place for that.
Wayland: I would (and do) stick to xorg for now. Wayland isnt quite at the level where it can fully replace xorg yet.
Bloat matters, but not to a worrysome extent. Most users probably won't notice it outside of specialized customization, and I'm sure you won't either.
Not so much on the managerial or organizational side, but I highly recommend getting used to and comfortable with the shell. Start with the easy stuff: file operations such as mv, cp, chmod and so forth, and use a text editor of your choice to edit text files. The memes would have you use vim, and while that is my preferred editor, more beginner friendly ones, such as nano, will do just fine.
Resources: I find that most of the time that I need input, either asking somewhere relevant (such as here), or looking it up on stackexchange will give me the result I'm after.
Things I wish I knew: When you can achieve what you want via the package manager, do it. Installing and removing stuff without it tends to gradually change your OS into a state where every library requirement is in conflict with some other requirement.
Satire "reporter". Check out "Cunk in Earth" on netflix, and you'll understand. I highly recommend it.
"Did that just happen?"
Linux Mint - More up to date packages. Especially the kernel.
Say you made this, but insulated... does a car battery have enough structural strength in the terminals, though? I imagine you're left holding a handle with two terminals and half a cell stuck to each.
It must be exhausting being like these guys. Imagine spending that much emotional energy on hating stuff that you can just as easily ignore and go about your day.
Maybe the brony insurgency is finally what will topple the Putin regime
~~FRIENDSHIP~~ REVOLUTION IS MAGIC
Edit: Would it be correct to refer to russian bronies as bronik?
