      If I recall correctly Arch has … ssh into wifey’s laptop … python installed out of the box.

      Run up a console and type python, and hit enter. Type in print (“Hello World”) and hit enter. There you go!

      If you lack a python: $ yay -S python.

      Same here, I work in the arts and can’t code a thing, but I use Arch (btw) as my daily driver.

      It was my first Linux distro after using Microsoft stuff for ages and let me tell you: it was a big mistake. It was absolutely confusing, had to use terminal for so many things with even msdos commands that I forgot that existed, broke it 3 times by just trying to automount the other drivers and a host of other things.

      End up switching to Linux mint and the transition went much smoother after that. I’m going back to it eventually though. I actually like it a lot.
