Ubuntu is a gateway drug to Arch.
Have you found appdata/local/Application Data
? It’s a “conjunction point” that you can only find via the command line, and only exists for backwards compatibility. It points to appdata/
… Do not EVER try to gain access over all your files in appdata/
. It’ll break due to that conjunction point.
I unironically prefer apt
over pacman
, simply because my monkeybrain got addicted to running pacman -S
(that was how to update, right?) and I dropped in productivity. apt
is just “nah fam, there’s nothing new for you” most days, which gives me the quiet time I want and need.
I ran Manjaro BTW. It was nice while it lasted, but Debian is my new friend now.
Probably not often, but as a Debian user, it’s a PITA to get back to where I was before I fucked up my system. Nix(OS) sounds like a future investment to me, just in case I ever fuck up and need to get back to where I was ASAP. Been there once already and it was NOT fun.
That was from a professional standpoint BTW, privately I’m still a dirty Windows pleb, because that’s what I’m most familiar with.
PS: I’m already using a dotfiles repo, which already saves me a ton of time in settings things up.
I’m slowly learning Nix, and I’ve learned that Nix has more packages available than any single distro could ever deliver: https://repology.org/repositories/graphs.
It even has more than AUR (Arch User Repository, BTW)
If I install a package, I don’t even know what it installed and/or where.
I can’t believe Linux can’t even tell you what it installed where - even Windows can do that.
