OneDrive mirroring

Stop telling me that I am out of storage, I did not ask you to put my files there.

Nvidia Linux drivers

A 2 month old driver from a desktop 3070 failed to detect a laptop 3050, and I had to chroot to remove the offending driver, buuuut

Rescue USB

So it turns out the default Tumbleweed ISO is NOT a live image. Recue didn't work nor did usb boot until I realised. Burned LMDE onto the usb key, and I was able to get back up and running relatively quickly.

I used Nobara for a year and my main partition got corrupted after a hard reset because my RAM is faulty. Decided to try Bazzite, everything has been smooth sailing and the best experience I've ever had on Linux, but if I had to list three things that would be:

Can't install xpad drivers from git because the Desktop is atomic.

I used a pending PR for xpad under Nobara that allowed access for the extra buttons for my Flydigi Vader 3 Pro under Linux. Right now I'm just using a VM with Windows to configure it as I want, it's a hassle but it works.

I don't know why the Steam client likes to freeze so much under Wayland every time a Steam spawned window is closed, it honestly gets on my nerves sometimes, wish it would just have native support by now.
Kernel level Anticheats that block Linux.

Not that much of a problem but it's annoying when some game I really want to play just doesn't work. I wanted to play the 2XKO alpha on Linux, but for some reason Riot decided to use Vanguard for it and I now I have to play it on a separate Windows install I did on an external SSD.

Funny enough not only is it X11, it's 32-bit.
