      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).

      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.

      A bad influence I see. But in all seriousness that’s awesome. I liked arch a lot when I was using it.

      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
