What are your favorite resources to recommend for beginners?
I’m wanting to get interested for doing a cyberdeck case, and/or custom cluster racks for Raspberry Pi’s but any and all newbie resources would be appropriate for this question.

Teaching tech is good
I’d also add troubleshooting guides from all3dp
I would suggest, however, at least checking calibration even if you’re not changing anything- and inspecting it out of the box. (Are the axis square to each other? Is the bed loose? Is the frame? Belts tight but not too tight?) if it’s a lower end… yeah? There’s probably something that needs tightening.
If it’s a higher end printer, well it’ll give you an idea of how it’s supposed to be.
Other resources…
As well as Prusa, this guide in particular, but the community is very helpful.
Also, I’d suggest staying away from thingiverse. A lot of the models are ripped from non-free sourced (like cults3d or my mini factory.); and many of the stls there suck anyhow. Printables my go to.
For more esoteric content… I’d recommend CNC Kitchen there’s always good stuff in their videos, even if it might not be “basic”
Finally… don’t freak out. There’s going to be a learning curve. It’s okay. Take it one print at a time, accept that spaghetti monsters will happen. (Just tell people it’s abstract art,)
