    I had been trying out Linux and finally decided to install it to my ssd. The timing ended up such that I got the wifi issues on the new install but not my old one, and they basically make the OS unusable. I didn’t realise any of this and am new so did heaps of reinstalling and searching trying to figure out what had gone wrong since it was all fine when it was installed on my HDD.

    I finally found some forum posts and bug reports about this after wasting a day assuming it was something I’d done wrong 😂.

    Gonna stick to lts kernel from now on I think. 6.6.6 seemed pretty fitting to me, even if it was 6.6.5 that actually broke it.









  • Hello, I am a cis dude but a lot of what you said sorta resonates with me (and call me an egg if you like lol, ask me again in a few years) but I feel pretty comfortable being a dude, even if I act feminine sometimes and feel more comfortable in queer spaces and wear skirts and the occasional wanting to be a woman, I don’t feel any dysphoria or anything like what a lot of trans folk experience so I’ve always felt comfortable just being a dude, sometimes I enjoy masculine traits, sometimes feminine, but it’s never particularly changed how I feel about my gender.

    I know you’re probably more after trans experiences but just felt like we had some things in common so maybe you’d appreciate some other perspectives.






  • I’m brand new to linux and was just trying to install something on a partition and I couldn’t figure out how to do it with either fedora or mint, they kept giving me errors and asking about mount points and stuff I didn’t understand. Then I tried EndeavourOS and the install was so painless, it just asked for the partition and did the rest for me. It also worked with my wifi card out of the box as an added bonus. By far the easiest experience so far. The little bit of googling I had to do to figure out how to use pacman and yay was not a big deal compared to actually getting started with Linux.

    This might not count as Arch, but that’s my experience at least.
