I get that, but any extensive cheat sheet would just wrap around to being an inefficient man page
-help is the quick sheet, man is the extensive guide

Cheat sheets are man pages and the -help option on most commands
Those exist already
Once you can do both, you can bet your ass I will :3
Bleh, consume sounds like an icky word here. But if you want to set up an RSS Feed, get an RSS reader (I personally use NewsFlash, but use whatever you like) and then simply add feeds to it. You can find them on quite a few sites, the icon looks kind of like a wifi symbol. Optionally you could also just install a plugin like Awesome RSS, which automatically finds feeds on the site you're currently on, which can be useful if it's kinda hidden on the site itself
I've already considered Debian, but... I dunno, this isn't what I'd call the most logical reason, but I just kinda don't like it as my desktop OS. I'd use Debian over basically anything else for a server, but as a desktop OS I don't like the vibe.
Keep in mind, I started using Linux this summer and in a few years I'll probably look back at this wondering why I was such an idiot, but I gotta fall and get a bloody nose first to notice ;3
Huh, I never expected anyone to recommend Arch to me because you have to tinker too much with an alternative distro. I thought simplicity was the reason why people liked NixOS, no?
Because of course the arch wiki has the info needed. I should've just checked there from the start, thanks!
Huh, neat. On my current EOS Desktop PC it's a bit too late to uninstall everything and reinstall it as a Flatpak, but I'll keep that in mind for new Linux installs. Thank you :3
Excuse me if this is a bit of a dumb question, as I have never particularly worried about packaging methods and simply installed what I needed from the official Arch packages or AUR, but how does Flatpak lead to fewer updates? I know it sandboxes things, that's why I've been interested in it for applications I don't quite trust like Discord, but I never got around to actually switching applications of that sort over and trying the format out.
Speaking of Discord, hooking that out of the "normal packages", aka everything I update via yay, would be beneficial anyways, since it's the only thing that forces me to update my system by saying how I'm oh so lucky about a new update coming out and I don't wanna mess with partial system updates. That's kinda besides the point though, I just wanted to complain.
Personally, instead of Tmux, I'd recommend trying Zellij. I started with Zellij right out of the gate, but a friend of mine who dislikes Tmux a lot quite enjoyed Zellij, so I assume it's somewhat better.
Honestly, I'd say you shouldn't do that prompt method. The auto type is genuinely great for the use cases which Excel is supposed to be used for, from someone managing their household finances to charting the growth of a business.
By all means, it absolutely should make assumptions about your data by default, as that's incredibly convenient for the average user. You can always change the type of a cell afterwards if what you're doing is special.
After reading all this, and generally being predisposed towards Arch since my experience with EndeavourOS has been rather comfortable so far^1^, I'd say I've less been rationally convinced of using it, but rather not deterred enough. So I think I'll just go with Arch, but make sure to keep my home folder in a separate partition, so I can bail if needed, with Fedora as my preferred backup.
1: Well, I say it's been comfortable for me, and that's true, but a friend of mine who installed EndeavourOS at the same time as me recently booted his pc up to find a terminal staring back at him. He says he didn't do anything weird, and didn't even update, but who knows. If I understood him correctly, reinstalling (one of) the Kernel(s) (I think he has two installed, one as a backup) fixed the issue. Problem is that this takes time, and when you're not home, with shitty or possibly no wifi, that's gonna be a big problem.
