My freind got me into PC in early 2019 me and my friend built a gaming pc. Ran windows then I orginally got a raspi in late 2019 for my 3d printer to run octo-print. Later that year i saw a video about sombody using this Os called Manjaro.
Swaped out my sd card for manjaro arm, gave it a try. Few months go by its 2020. Everything locks down, i have alot of freetime. Decides to install manjaro on seprate sdd. Realize i wrote over winboot. Reinstall windows on 1st ssd. Dualboot manjaro and windows, enjoy using manjaro. Breaks multible time because I used the AUR and didnt know shit. Reinstall manjaro, uses it for a week and didnt Use the AUR. New kernal comes out bricks my install. I didnt know how to fix.
Realationship ended with manjaro, Kbuntu is new freind. Use kbuntu and really enjoy it, use it for e-learning and schooling. Learns about KVM and virt-manager Unistall windows. Use a vm for e-learning (get out of needing to turn on camera for rollcall for class because Vm has no camera for microsoft teams and teams doesnt find a camera) Uses kbuntu religously, 2 months go by arch-install script comes out. Goes back to arch, enjoys arch uses AUR breaks system again :Q. Finds out about fedora, uses fedora for a while. First time using gnome. Falls in love with the simplicy. Installs fedora silverblue on lenovo t450. Trys fedora sodalight, loves the imutablillity. Cant find a package for silverblue trys nix-env. 2021 apears i buy a lenovo w540 cant get shit to run on it (fuck you nvidia and your shitty k110m gpu) decides to try a distrobution called NixOS. Legit crack, addictive better thansex.mp3 . installs every package delcartivly (i figured out how to blacklist nvidia) install nix 23.5 soat. On main rig has a steep learning curve lots of youtube videos help. Just upgraded to 23.11 it works great only thing i cant install is W-okia Rvc voice changer for screwing with my freinds and Lightburn. Because its read only filesystem :(. Other than that everythings been great and i dont have any reason to switch from nix. I bought a t440p and installed skulls libreboot last week and Last night i was dipping my toes into gentoo. Thats neat that we had a simlar journey with manjaro LMAO.
Mr.hacker man? Lol Yeah adding restrictions is like the alchol prohibition in the US. Restricing it is going to make it more prevlent and easily acessible. There may be more sites that pop up that boot leg it. Kinda like schools with cool math games being blocked so you have unblocked games websites.
