I use Arch (btw), I break my own stuff whenever I want, keep up Microsoft.
Secretly in love with AUR and a masochist.
At least on Arch you can reasonably fix it yourself.
Filesystem snapshots are the best thing since sliced bread.
I feel like a time traveller with timeshift.
Timeshift, to a dedicated partition, is the first thing I install and configure if not installed by default by the distro
😂I don’t do snapshots, I just have important files in my nextcloud server managed by my friend, who does snapshots 🤭
Nix generations in my case
I am confused but my daily driver Arch install has had zero issues since installing it.
What am I doing wrong?
Do you always tell people that you use it? If not that may be what you are doing wrong
Maybe you correctly follow documentation and best practices.
Where we are going there is no documentation.
But, there is a wiki
So, you want to use AUR whenever possible by adding -git to every package that you want to install, also mess with your python install by mixing pip and AUR packages, don't forget to install your nvidia beta drivers.
🤔🤭 I see, that is why my endeavourOS never broke yet 😃
Always use precompiled, no time to compile myself 😂 never used pip ever and used nvidia-inst to install the nvidia driver 😇
