Correcting your teeth is something you’ll enjoy the rest of your life. Don’t let your worries about how people will precieve you now impact the rest of your life
I’ve been using it for desktop for the last 2 years and haven’t had any issues preventing me from booting (that werent self-caused). I’m actually quite impressed with how well it works, but I do have what I consider a healthy distrust of the AUR and tend to stay away unless I can’t find a solution to my problem in the official repos.
I’ve been dist updating my fileserver for a decade and noticed over the last year or so that I’m using considerably more disk space than I expected on my OS drive. I see a lot of Snap installs (which I’d rather not use), and am getting messages from apt update telling me there’s additional security packages if I switch to some Ubuntu paid subscription or something.
I don’t really care to look more into it. I’ve been meaning to rebuild the hardware anyways, and will probably install Arch or Debian.
I wouldn’t say it’s trying to sound important as much as it is trying to sound serious / no bullshit tone: “I’m fixin’ to whop yo ass”, or as a response to your boss bitching at you to do something: “yeah yeah I’m fixin’ to”
