I think they said that because OP wrote “not once have I had a problem or anything break. What am I doing wrong?” making it sound like the problem is that they haven’t experienced anything break yet.

Vim is pretty easy for me because I’m used to it. Nano is very difficult to use for me because I’ve rarely used it.

This is in my Home Manager configuration. I don’t think this is that bad, it’s just kinda messy. If you can’t tell, it’s a script for taking screenshots, embedded in my configuration.
I wanted to customize Windows 10. Customizing Windows was too hard and unsafe (requiring many “bloated” third party tools).
Then, after seeing some cool themes, I realized Linux is way more customizable. So I tried Linux Mint and now I use NixOS.
If you want a challenge that may or may not be worth it, try configuring NixOS. And I mean really get into it, try to configure everything using Nix. It’s very time consuming but not boring, each configuration varies person to person (i.e the way you organize it) so it can be quite fun if you have the time.
Also nixpkgs (what Nix and NixOS use) has like, all the packages
Windows 10.
I wanted customization. Windows provided customization, sure, but like in the worst way possible. Want to change the system colors or what buttons look like? Download this third party theme and apply it with bloated tools that are probably malware in disguise!
Meanwhile on Linux (NixOS), I can just change a few lines in my dotfiles and it works. Sometimes it’s inconvenient but I’m not really looking for convenience.
I use Thunderbird and I don’t think it looks old, specially after recent updates. You can also change the colors which is pretty cool.
i call it “nofetch” because it’s not there

I’m so glad I don’t care about/don’t notice audio quality. I could listen to a literal microwave oven and I’d consider it a beautiful, high fidelity song.
I don’t know what Soulseek or Freyr are (I’ll look into what they are), but you can use Seal (F-Droid) to download files using yt-dlp on Android.
I started with NixOS and now I installed something called “Lix”
Yeah I’m deep in it to return
Documentation is different from technical support and neither should be done on Discord.
If you’re gonna go though the trouble of installing a browser, why switch Microsoft for Google?
Exactly I don’t get it, the only explanation I can think of is that they have Chrome on their phone and want to sync it or something?
why do windows users install chrome?
i don’t get it, edge comes preinstalled on windows and it’s chromium-based.

If they care about terminal emulators, it’s unlikely their distro came with one preinstalled.
