Just don’t ask how long it took to get my dGPU working properly :D But thankfully, there were a bunch of helpful folks with tips!

    I feel like a lot of the reason people are hesitant to hop into Linux is because of how everything that goes “under the hood” requires a bunch of terminal commands and text file changes.

    Ironic, then, that I learned how to Linux the hard way – In distros that expected exactly that from me. I cut my teeth in Arch and its siblings and sure, I can do that.

    But it’S SO MUCH FASTER AND EASIER to just click a few buttons and then shit just works. YaST is bliss.

    Like. DUDE. I don’t have to edit some files and then clench my asshole for 55 seconds while rebooting when I change a few entries in Grub.

    And Zypper actually CHECKS what processes are running and what packages you’re installing, and actually tells you if you do or don’t need a reboot, instead of a blanket “hmmmm we updated, should probably reboot but idfk, that’s your problem now” which is what both apt and pacman gave me.

    Quality of Life, it’s really underrated.
