You want something like that. It makes navigating between the two applications use the same set of keys, there are some other plugins (linked in the readme) that do similar things with different feature sets, but fixing the keybinds is a huge step towards making it a smooth experience.
It seems a bit dated too, I definitely have a bitlocker disk mounted right now.
The TPM secure boot key part is true, but you can disable secure boot and use (on Windows) manage-bde to add a password based key. When you boot and it can’t load the bitlocker key from the TPM it prompts the user for a password.
I’m fairly sure there’s a way to bypass the secure boot requirement for Windows 11 too, I think I read about it but I’m not using windows so I didn’t look into it much.
It’s a pain. Windows can’t read ext4 and NTFS does not play well with Proton gaming. You could use exfat as a common filesystem. My solution before I gave up duel booting was to put games on my NAS and access them via NFS. It was a bit slow even on a 2.5gb network, but very playable.
Yeah, staying on top of updates and watching the announcements is pretty much a requirement for Arch. Things change fast, that’s both the advantage and disadvantage of this distro.
The AUR, like any repository where users can submit software, is going to have malicious uploads from time to time. The AUR team does a good job of removing these as soon as they’re discovered but there’s nothing that can prevent it. There’s a voting system so you usually see which packages are the most commonly installed but even that could be manipulated if someone were motivated enough.
I would guess that if it became common enough they could enable some more stringent identity verification for submitters in order to cut down on bad actors. But it is very much at your own risk and there’s a big warning about it in the wiki saying as much.
I was just guessing (it’s how I’d do it) 🥳
Maybe each server shows up as a library. Like “Server 1 - Movies”
Kind of annoying but less so than swapping servers and search should work
If you can find a laptop that you like, you could replace the trackpad with a glass one: https://www.reddit.com/r/thinkpad/comments/jik7ac/ive_just_changed_my_plastic_touchpad_for_a_glass/
I was being facetious mostly.
You can use the Arch Linux Archive to get older versions of software: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Arch_Linux_Archive but it isn’t a simple process like it is in some other distributions so I only use it as a last resort.
You guys are talking about two different things.
Ubuntu provides maintenance on LTS versions for up to 10 years.(you) They do not provide tech support to users.(borari)
It’s a very neat system.
It’s a lot like switching to Linux, it’s weird and doesn’t feel intuitive until you’ve been using it for a few months when you start wondering how you ever lived without it.

I’m a stereotype, my first bounce off of Linux was getting stuck in vim flailing around and overwriting some critical config file before powering off and coming back to a terminal prompt.
Not having a second device to search for answers, I just went back to Windows.
Yeah, I think we’ve all been there.
Just starting a new OS, deep in imposter syndrome, every problem seems to require fixing two other problems and you’re trapped in vim.
It gets easier.
Don’t be afraid of the terminal, it’s the most powerful tool you have. Look for things that you can script, everything you do in a GUI you can script, anything that you do repeatedly should be scripted(and bound to a keyboard shortcut.) LLMs are decent at making simple scripts, but use them to learn how to write scripts, don’t just vibe code everything.
Any tool that you hate probably has 4 other projects which do the same thing, so go look for alternatives if one frustrates you. Awesome Lists are a good place to start: https://github.com/luong-komorebi/Awesome-Linux-Software
I was too noob to figure how to roll back the drivers there.
I think the official method is to check your pacman cache and pray that it’s still in there. Arch only rolls forward, for good or ill.
I also use Arch/NVIDIA without issue.
The last major NVIDIA issue I had was trying to use gamescope to get HDR. But after Proton 10 I just use native Wayland which supports HDR (in KDE Plasma).
The smb server is Linux, my desktop is Linux.
The office workers use a debloated Windows 11.
I installed pihole at the same time as the server swapped from Windows to Linux, so now they believe the Linux server magically sped up the Internet.

Almost certainly this.
Type nmcli, if it does anything but complain that it can’t find that command, you have NetworkManager installed
There’s like 3 rendering engines. Not everything can be described with a tier list.
