    linux is easy… to break things. But look at all the amazing things you’ll learn recovering from that!

    The pain will pass and the endorphines will be amazing. I should know, I’ve been in similar shit way too many times.

      Using Windows is terrible right now, but we’ve spent so much time using it that we developped workarounds and knowledge of the OS.

      When you switch to Linux, it’s a different OS altogether, and that’s not counting the different flavors.

      So yeah, all that to say that the pain and friction pass quite rapidly and you are left with an uncluttered OS (until you fill it up with useless crap).

      Corpos have worked so hard at making the UX “seamless” that people aren’t used to fiddling with the computer anymore.

    If you want an easy Linux experience maybe you should avoid installing your own WM, more if it is a tilling one.

      No, for fucks sake: I have no idea how Linux works and expect to be proficient after I installed ubuntu once. Must be Linux that is bad if my apt repositories don’t work on arch. Fuck it, I’ll go back to windows

      To be honest, I expected nothing else with my 750m mac edition running on nouveau

      Probably a simple line in config to fix it, or some swap fail (there is kde visible somehow)

      But first I have to fix build error of hyprland-git 🤓

        There are distros with Hyprland already built in the repositories, not having to build something make things considerably easier.

      Yea, but nvidia on this machine just works with nouveau and wayland kde 🤷🏻 so it is a me fault, since it is most likely just a missing config

    Get an immutable distro. That way when you inevitably destroy it, it comes back from the dead!

    (Disclaimer: I still havent tried, Im too scared, I just got the nvdia slowly blurring my screen after sleeping working again)

      Immutable distros works great when you want them exactly as they come. Anything else is a shit show IMHO.

      As an example, multiple fedora based immutable distros dont have the codecs required to play YouTube videos. You have to either replace the rpm-ostree based Firefox with the flatpaks one or layer ffmpeg over the base system. Both solutions I wouldn’t expect someone without Linux knowledge to be able to do.

        Layering is usually not advised as it can cause issues. You’re usually supposed to use something like DistroBox but that often does not actually work or is very convoluted. Definitely not something for newbies, which is kinda at odds with the safety of an immutable system.

      I’m a complete linux noob currently using Bazzite and its treated me well so far. I just web browse and game on this machine though, no professional or special requirements like some have.

        Yeah im using bazzite as well. My 4070 is kinda causing me some headaches as the driver seems to crash my firefox constantly when using KDE which pushed me back to X11 but its been a while since I tested it out again.

        Try to install Mullvad VPN. Don’t use the .rpm because if you happen to be able to install that it bricks your system. In my case that didn’t even work, luckily, but the app just won’t seem to work within a suggested DistroBox setting either. Can’t get ROCm to properly work either, which is already a pain in the ass on a regular distro.

      Anyone know if Ublue Aurora works out of the box with a MacBook like OP has? I’ve got a 2014 MacBook Pro that I’m probably putting Linux on next year once I no longer need Mac OS.

      My gaming laptop, with an Nvidia graphics card, is running Bazzite and I’ve never had any issues with it (of course, ymmv).

        I think, maybe the wifi driver will not work out of box. it Most likely has the same broadcom wifi card. EndeavourOS was the only OS where wifi worked out of box. With the other, I had to either get de b43 firmware files or install the wl driver from broadcom. Wl driver seemed to achieve a more stable condition.

        If it has a legacy nvidia, like mine (750m), your best bet is using nouveau driver, which comes out of box, and is mostly wayland compatible (it just worked on kde and gave this glitchfest on hyprland.

        If you want dual boot like me, you have to shrink and create the new partition as fat32 in macOS first.

        I have never tried immutable yet
