For the problem thing, I use timeshift.
Hit a snag? Boot into a system state from a few weeks back and deal with it later.
The problem was the specialized software from samsung to sideload jellyfin on my tv not working properly but i second that timeshift is not a luxery on these kind of systems. If i only need windows now and then for sm specialized then thats ok, hope to move windows into just a vm soon.
I have to admit, I still have a windows partition, but I honestly haven't booted into it for a full year now. The only thing I can think of needing it for, is firmware updates to my logitech peripherals, but that's something I can live without.
There will always be something that will only work on windows, but that list is getting short enough now that the number of people it's a problem for has begun to shrink, too.
“ but that list is getting short enough now that the number of people it’s a problem for has begun to shrink, too.” this was also my mates take who got me who introduced me to arch/hyprland. The progress in just one year is amazing and i wonder how much gpt-powered devs are responsible for that acceleration.
