It's come a long way, and there's a lot of work left yet to do, but nobody wanted to do the work on xorg anymore lol.

the real reason xorg needs to live is so elon musk can't get his greasy mitts on the domain

They say even with Arch having guided installs now, it's best to do it the old fashioned way so you understand the different components better.

I can muck around with fstab and xorg if I have to, but really don't like it. Manjaro bricking itself and having to recover twice in a row put me off arch

I am going to be that guy and say that I’ve always used Dropbear on Alpine because it’s simpler and I would only use OpenSSH if I needed Xorg support. I believe we should reduce the size of programs so the attack surface is minimal. Either that or switch to a safer language.
