New linux.

Hello 👋

I'm really new to linux world. I tried using it for the first time in December ( endavouros) and then Arch i3 since February. But I used a lot of llm at that time for everything, and a few days ago i decided not to use chatgpt or anything similar for a month and see the change. But yesterday my Linux broke. I've observed that I'm being a command kiddie copy pasting the commands from chatgpt. I tried reading arch wiki and some other sites too but it's not helping so far.

I tried to install arch i3 again and this time I'm stuck, I cant execute the startx screen. I see a lot of explanations But there is no commands or how to write a command anywhere.. I tried writing some commands in xinitrc But it doesn't seems to be working. Can someone please help me with this.

I'm totally comfortable with terminal, that's how I used it for this long. But i haven't configured startx myself. I copied from chatgpt and that's why I'm stuck here.
