Guess who fucked up his system again, that right it me!!!!
Jokes aside this time I really did my system bad tbch, I really craved the taste of the Plasma DE for some reason and had to install Manjaro on hardware to play with it a bit, so I took my entire system and deleted after taking a manual backup and installed Manjaro on a 30GB partition in like a school night, it was crazy like I had a million things to do and instead I chose to freaking install Linux for the +999 time, that makes me a real Linux nerd doesn’t it lol. Anyways after I did that I installed the base version of void the next day in class (yes you heard me right I am that badass I installed fking Void Linux in class). However I gotta admin something… I’ve grown to realize that Void ain’t really that difficult, and not I’m not showing of this time I’m serious like listen we can all agree that installing Void is much easier than installing Arch, I mean I don’t install Arch that much these days but even that new install script can’t be as easy and as fast as installing Void bro I can start the installation in less than one minute including the time for partition can imagine that? one minute! that’s all it takes to install this dark beast everybody is afraid of. Also even after the installation the part many people claim to be the worst part about Void because of the weird package manager it has, bro if you think that XBPS ain’t good you either are a real newbie or you haven’t tried it at all and just listening to what people say, the Distro is rolling release and yet I feel like I’m running something that is more stable than Debian it self thanks to that package manager, lemme explain it for you Arch people see how you ppl have pacman as the main package manger which has most of the packages anybody would need for basic functionality? and you have some AUR helper like Paru or Yay to get some weird packages from the AUR not caring about weather they’re stable or not? that exactly how it works here in void, instead of Pacman we have XBPS for stable packs, but still if I needed anything weird like Brave or VSCodium I can just get them from the Nix package manager. I know I may be overrating Void and all but… I can’t help it, it feels like home to me now.
Oh and I don’t have that setup anymore I just formatted my computer again yesterday and installed Void as a main OS again, what has changed this time is that I started using a separate home partition because I think that I’ll be resetting my system quite often do to space issues and to my crazy OCD that got nuts when my home dir has over 10 random folders in it lol. So far it has been working out great, I set up 90% of the programs I need including Windows VMs for school, and speaking of school I got some kind of project that is both a good challenge for me and also a chance for me to show off some modern pieces of software like SurrealDB and Tauri, it won’t be that difficult hopefully once I get the change to actually start working on it, because for now I really don’t anytime for this kind of work.
Alright this should be enough for today, thank you so much if you made it all the way here, see you in the next one. Farewell!
