I don't want to complain because I know a lot of effort went into Mate but isn't for me and applications having unnecessary dependencies especially those tied into the function of your system pisses me off so much. But also it's Linux if I don't like it I can just leave.
I don't think I'm going like MATE as a desktop environment. Don't like the file manager that's okay, to get rid of it you also have to get rid of the dependency that lets your desktop environment work. XFCE never pulled this shit, didn't like their apps just get rid of them..

I think after having some time on a different distro again I don't think I hated my time on artix. I think the two things that frustrated me most would be not really any documentation for my Hardware exciting beyond a few things and package availability in the main repository.
People seem to love MATE as a desktop environment and you know what I don't get it. As time went on I grew to understand why XFCE is so beloved as a desktop environment and I don't get it with MATE but give me a week maybe I will.
I think if XFCE had proper animation support for a lot of people it wouldn't be that bad to even use on stronger systems where you don't necessarily need a lighter environment. And I know some window managers can bring animation support but that's not really a full solution1
I think XFCE might be better then MATE. But I think I'm going to stick to using MATE because even if it is the heavier and slightly less customizable of the two environments the way I use my computer it's actually lighter then XFCE.

Maintaining a system long-term without it becoming an unoptimized mess if you don't understand that system is basically impossible. Humans think through problems and make decisions based on the general understanding of the program in ways is AI simply cannot.
If you put Linux on a 2013 macbook end like to tinker like me just know all roads lead back to Mac OS Mountain Lion. Learn how to mount a USB with the Mac OS terminal because you will be doing it more than once and you will don't you tell me you won't.
So I messed up the ISO burning command because yes I'm burning the iso to the USB via terminal because why not and it appears I have burned an ISO to somewhere, it is beyond me whare just somewhere, it hasn't broken anything yet

I think I'm going to switch distributions again, I have spent only 3 hours on artix and I don't want to spend anymore.
Part of me wishes I was joking but puppy Linux is kind of a tempting offer. A set of lightweight distributions with multiple options from Debian based, Ubuntu based or even Void based.
Do you ever just feel a random compulsion to reinstall your computer's operating system for no reason.

Guardrails in consumer software should be safety suggestions not requirements. They should never be used for anything other than the safety of the user or their system, should not be abused and must always remain a suggestion.
