You've gotta ask does an old person care more about Google spying on them or being able to use a computer as easily as possible

Depending on use case it doesn't sound like that'd be an issue. I used one of the like 3rd generation Chromebooks for school, I had to rdp for visual studio and Photoshop but it was perfect for everything else

Are we expecting this old person to suddenly embrace their leet gamer skills

Ah you seem to be missing dnf. No worries! Just do pacman -S dnf

Then you can run

dnf install apt

If someone's in imminent danger sending police capable of protecting them from said danger seems like a reasonable idea

How does its startup time compare to other launchers (rofi or tofi for example)

Ah makes sense. I installed hyprland on arch then jumped to nix when I couldn't be bothered with it lol

They specifically mentioned alacritty which is a terminal emulator

What's a PITA sorry? Never heard of that

I've used pantheon on nix before and it worked perfectly, can't say for other distros

I use kitty as my term, I am a little jealous of some of the warp features though.

Wave has some cool features too though feels very clunky and busy ui

VM is probably the answer as long as your machine can run one well enough.

I'm one of those people, they make a surprisingly good combo

If you're doing nix right it doesn't matter how unstable something is if it's borked you just revert it

Have generally found hyprland to be pretty stable anyway though as long as you're not on the unstable nix channel
