Thanks for the write-up! Seems like I'll have to indeed resort to externals or to my home PC like u/catloaf said.

I also tried booting into safe mode, and after I modified the process you listed a bit I was able to get into safe mode (judging by the brief lock screen flash with Safe mode in the bottom left), but unfortunately it didn't overwrite the OS setting, so that option is out of the question as well. I could also check if USB/ADB connectivity changes at all in safe mode, but I'm afraid it will not.

That's insane. If it doesn't bother you, how did it feel? How long was the drive? What happened afterwards?

The only RGB I have is a tiny module in my mouse's scroll wheel, and that's it. I didnt realise the mouse had that module when I bought it and I was quite irritated because of that but I've grown to actually like it.

On another note, I'm using an old keyboard that's basically at death's door because it seems like it's literally IMPOSSIBLE to find a good keyboard without RGB in it. It's insane.

I've been using proton for a few months now with a yearly Mail Plus subscription and I have yet to receive an actual spam e-mail. Your experience might be different than mine since I take precautions not to invite spam in the first place, but even then, Proton looks to be doing an excellent job

oh damn, i didn't realize you can get boards like that! i thought they all had the i3, so i didn't bother to look. thanks a lot!

[-] brachypelmasmithi@lemm.ee 3 points 3 months ago

Weird, the software manager (using LM 21.3) reports 1.1GB dl, 2.4GB installed (which is different from when i checked yesterday for some reason?). flatpak install reports around 2.1GB of dependencies and the package itself at just 1.3MB

EDIT: nvm im stupid, the other reply explains the discrepancy

For the past few years, I just install the latest stable version of anything I use and never bother touching or tweaking anything ... never had a problem since.

And that's exactly how I'm trying to approach everything after the reinstall. I like tinkering with my system, but after a couple months it really starts messing with everything.

Seems solid, I'll check it out, thanks!
