Would Arch installer work on Artix with just changing the repos? I have no issues installing manually, but Arch installer is the fastest Linux installer available. It is much faster than any GUI installer, so VM's would benefit a lot.

I am planning to get an external storage for Ventoy use. My current random usb 3.1 stick writes .iso-files with only 10-15 mbps only. I found this webpage for usb stick speed comparison: https://ssd-tester.de/usb_stick_test.php

The fastest usb sticks writes 800-1000 mbps in the crystaldisk-test.

If you have personal experience on this, please recommend which approach is better.

Does this give any real world value for boot times or anything else?

I have no possibility to test this in VM so that's why I'm asking if anybody has actually tried this and found benefits.

I am trying to experiment with RedoxOS in qemu and in a virtualbox, but the internet connection doesn't work out of the box. I tried to search from the documentation (which is great, thank you all for maintaining it) for the steps how to activate but no success.

So, how am I supposed to activate the internet connection in a VM?

I can't delete any games because nothing happens when I try to either delete the game or manage game files.

I tried to reboot and waited for game updates but no success. Is this a known issue or what?

I'd like to make multiple terminal apps to launch in foot terminal, but I can't figure out how to se it properly.

~/.config/mimeapps.list contains a line "terminal=foot.desktop" (tried also without .desktop).

Dir /usr/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache has everything set properly (swayimg.desktop as a imageviewer) but still every picture opens in a browser which I don't want to see.

As a file managers I use lf and nnn, they both contain .desktop-files but I can't launch them with keybinds or menu launcher. Same applies to vim.desktop, nothing happens.

The distro I use is Artix, but I assume this problem is unrelated to this problem. I tried to google wiki but none of the xdg- related articles contains this.

Edit. I managed to find a workaround for lf and nnn by editing the Exec= line in /usr/share/applications/*.desktop file. (Exec=/usr/bin/foot -e nnn) but I still can't figure the swayimg imageviewer.

Is Alpine also becoming immutable, or is this development towards immutable independent/separate from Alpine?

I'm not involved in the project by any means. Not even an user yet. Just a fanboy. Thanks for everybody involved in this project.
