I initially tried guix -> switched to nix with home-manager because it’s got a lot better repos -> installed all user packages through nix on Debian -> nixos

Before nixos I used flatpaks for some packages because nixgl seems abandoned.

Why are you even running arch at that point, for the DE updates?

Try googling something like “how to make a VPN server”

Human communication 101: sometimes humans ask a question without expecting an answer, it’s called a rhetorical question

Much simpler method, especially for smaller scale:

Take a french press, put avb in, replace water for a few days when it gets dirty. When it stays clear you’re done curing it, press the water out, and start cooking.

Most mainstream OSes have GUI for anything you’d need to do as a novice.

And how is Linux any different?

I’ve literally had a non-technical person who used Linux for less than a week fix an issue through the xfce gui while I was googling a solution.

You just need to choose a correct distro and DE for the job.

More like a restaurant that has Korean BBQ / hot pot on the menu. Most meals are completely prepared, but for some you need to do a small part yourself.

Gotta mask that ABV taste to make it bearable on the way down!

Or water cure it for a couple of day to remove that taste. Water cured avb extracted in coconut oil has a really nice gentle weed taste.

I get that for sure, but you can still use it only for specific tasks like org-mode LaTeX. It was literally made by some astronomer/astrophysicist to make writing LaTeX easier.

Come to the evil side, we have org-mode

vim user

LaTeX user

When you go to the wrong side

Well, I guess I’m off to read the fkin wiki now.

You can always install an arch derivative like endeavour instead and click through the wizard

Multiple accounts, offline backup, better UI, don’t need to log in, etc.

This is also true for docker unless configured otherwise

Just to make sure, it’s the rootless Daemon?

Also, another option for OP; nixos base image docker container

I thought emacs was all about ctrl + ?.

It is, but you have gui features

I use Emacs and neovim. Each is better in different scenarios.

Vim and emacs usually run in the terminal and require keyboard commands to complete actions.

It is most certainly not usual to run Emacs in the terminal.

although of course it’s possible to use keyboard commands.

And you can use Emacs with a mouse.

I mean, it’s an IBM ThinkPad, it is slow. Linux just makes it usable.

You should have been added after like a century of constantly invading countries, funding extremists, setting up “revolutions” promoting their puppets, causing genocide, and doing war crimes nobody can persecute you for. Who needs zionisists when the entire country is a temple to unrestricted capitalism run by oligarchs.
