When I was first starting out it felt like that. Granted, when I first used Linux it was in 2011.
I returned to Linux three years ago, and I only fucked up royally twice. Granted, I didn’t know how to fix what I did at the time (I removed my only account from sudoers).
I managed to ruin Debian stable my first go in 2015. Don't ask how. I still don't know
removed my only account from sudoers
Every time you boot up there would be a brand new file system you'd have to learn until bricked your device.
Ah I see you are talking about nixos.
The dark souls of operating systems.
You can configure everything. But everything can turn into a tedious process of figuring out dependencies and how a program works.
Or just try nixos and don't be afraid of breaking things ever again
that's the Linux endgame fr 🥶❄️❄️
nixOS links cool I just struggle wrapping my head around having everything in a single config or however they do it
🔲 Create a partition
Just did this with my main laptop. Was running mint with zero issues and yesterday decided to wipe it and install endeavor
A bad influence I see. But in all seriousness that's awesome. I liked arch a lot when I was using it.
Everything runs perfectly but I can't play DCS or get my joystick to work, the call is calling
might I suggest a VM or a cheap spare device?
I need you to know you are not wrong. But also a part of me wants to live one foot off the merry go round. EVEN THOUGH I absolutely know I shouldn't.
in that case I suggest keeping general files (as in not apps, except for stuff like a steam library) on a separate drive or partition from root, that's more or less what I was doing when I was distro hopping
Arch testing on servers👍
