This is good. A couple of thoughts:

1. This is OS-independent (doesn't matter if the user is on Linux or MacOS), so I wouldn't put it in with the install instructions. Have a new heading after the install instructions (but before the Extras heading, and call it ### Updating your Ruby version. Add your instructions there.
2. The main two places people might run into issues with this would be for the custom enumerables project and the ruby testing stuff. In both of those repos, can you put in PRs that add a note box after the bundle install command in their READMEs? Maybe something like:

[!NOTE]
If the above bundle install command fails by telling you that you don't have the necessary version of Ruby, just follow the instructions to update your Ruby version located in the Installing Ruby lesson in the curriculum.

Edit: Note markdown is made by doing

> [!NOTE]
> Stuff in the notebox appears here

I'll assign you. Let me know if you have any questions about the things I talked about above.
