Trying to get rid of shitdows for the nth time.

Imaged my windoze to VM and another disk just to be safe.

Installed Artix community edition. After reboot it won't boot. Stupid grub keeps trying to use wrong NVME. Found a fix grub command. Now panels keep resetting every restart, display scaling is total shit, arranging displays looks like that old windows bug where the windows tile all over the screen, random things don't work, printer won't work, sound keeps resetting to the wrong output every restart. Dumped it.

Installed devuan because everything works with debian. LiveCD couldn't find my network card. Plugged in a usb ethernet that worked, thought it would install drivers. Didn't install shit. Now I'm running some shit fuzzy resolution on a 4k monitor trying to figure out how to install AMD driver and dumped it. Fuck that.

Try void for 2nd time. New hardware. With previous PC it wouldn't work with my sound card. Forgot these fuckers make you manual partition. Figure it out watching some dude on youtube. Looking really nice. But I can't get many programs to work and scaling is shit and something else made me dump it.

Go for PCLinux. Yay, a WIZARD. I fucking love wizards and do not like manual partitioning in a terminal tool. Press next a few times, stuck on Please wait for 30 minutes. Dump it.

Gentooo lets goooo. Wait wtf their livecd is a fucking terminal and I have to reference a guide to get this motherfucker installed. Dumped it.

Do research. Apparently kde plasma isn't absolute shit at scaling. Install artix plasma as I've gotten furthest with this OS toward a usable system. Half the repos now won't update. Some key mismatch shit. Can't get the apps I want. Spend 2 hours finally find some copy paste about fixing keychains in pacman and reinitializing the fucker. Well now it fucking works like it should have out of the box. What shit is this that so much trouble is necessary to pacman? Got yay to work with arch aur. Installed most of the stuff I want. Now the problem is the fucking printer. I installed it through the control panel and selected the correct driver but it still not working.

I'm afraid I may not have the strength to persevere through this printer installation task.
