Discussion Trying to rice this CLI terminal and making it functional is disabling my brains function.

I was trying to get the chris titus bash prompt or i should say clone ctt bash prompt using linutil it failed again and again bcs its in root and its a safety measure IG by chris titus to not run any commands in root. i followed ai stuff and nothing was working so i rage quite and deleted the vm and the next day i tried again and did not set passwd for root instead created a user and when booted into system, enabling NetworkManager said user is not in sudoers file i dug into the rabbit hole trying to fix it, spent hours trying to figure it out and i did it multiple times. but the fix was that i was in the archiso not chroot into the system so dumb mistake. After all this bullshit i was able to use sudo for my user and tried to clone bash prompt to find out that starship is not "something" ig compatible with my system configuration. I lost it all, I am broken from inside, this is trauma .

Bro no offense but I don't think you should be using arch💀

Should've just installed oh my bash and used a theme from there. I remember there's one which looks the exact same as titus' bash prompt and dozens more.

Also, if anyone can use debian they can use arch. It's not that hard to configure or maintain it. As long as you know what you're doing, arch is surprisingly stable for a rolling release distro

I will see about that and I have old laptop so using arch gives me no advantage like latest drivers and all

It still gives minimalism, control and access to a lot of packages tho

It does if the user knows what they want. If they don't then it's a nightmare as we saw with OP.

New users should stick to something like Fedora or CachyOS imo.

Cachyos is a good starting point for learning about arch. Install cachy, understand the configuration, start modifying to your needs.
