Well, Ubuntu uses Snap, which is a rather poor packaging solution that basically no other distro has adopted. By default it’s a little bloated, it’s made some controversial decisions (rust coreutils), and other distros just do what Ubuntu does better (like Mint)

I mean, you could just pay Monero to someone for Proton Giftcards. Good luck, though.

Imagine handing over a Hexbear username, lol

Learning how to use documentation should be the first thing you do when you try the Linux terminal. man vim, Vim page on the archwiki, etc.

I mean, just type :help and then use your arrow keys to scroll around and read how to use vim/neovim.

they’re not cheap, even when bought second hand

I mean, I bought my T480 for $170 second hand (not from a refurbisher) a few years ago.

Hexbear just has no downvote button (assuming this isn’t sarcastic or anything)

Not even your lord can save you now.

Try 6746 open tabs. And several times that more bookmarks.

Sure, maybe I was a little ambitious. But my point is mistakes can bring learning, so it might be worth it to try something “hard”. Trying things in a virtual machine is also often a good idea.

Attempt an Arch install entirely from memory. You might want to try this in a VM, in case something goes wrong, but just do it. If you can’t quite remember what to do, man and ls /bin are your friends.

Some people might have also clicked on a little bear.
