To be fair, people who know which logs to attach and how to get them usually already know enough to troubleshoot the issue by themselves.
This is such a hard part of learning Linux. "Just look at the logs" Which logs? Where? How?
journalctl > logs.txt
(don't actually do this)(what does this do?)
You'd think so, but the logs often contain a ton of noise along with the one line that tells me what the actual issue is.
