I just changed my Windows OS to Ubuntu and want to understand how to use it effectively.

I saw commands where a user sends files to /dev/null. What goes after moving some file to /dev/null? What are the use cases of/dev/null?

Sorry if it's an incorrect question. Will really appreciate any answers.

    See the manual page `man null`: 'Data written to the /dev/null and /dev/zero special files is discarded.' – sudodus Dec 12 '18 at 10:31
