How would I learn about how debian works and how to configure it all? All I have been doing so far is just googling the problems I have run into, but I'm not really learning anything.

I have never used apt-get ugrade. I always use dist-upgrade. I have no
idea when I would want to use upgrade instead, and I have used debian
for 9 years now. I think it has no actual purpose really.
