There is a couple reasons, I am not a huge fan of the shape, meaning I would rather have a smaller screen, but thicker phone to allow for a bigger battery. Pixel 4 screen size was perfect in my opinion. There is also something about the square corners I don't really like, can't really put my finger on it, but again the Pixel 4 was great. I only upgraded because the battery was wearing out. Also with the 6a, not a great camera. Not any better than the 4. I would recommend trying Pixel 7 or waiting for the 8.

Does Arch have drive encryption integrated? Or do you have to use LUKS like manjaro and decrypt the drive before booting into it?

How does NixOS compare to SteamOS on the Deck? Does it work just as smooth? Also, is EMUDeck compatible with NixOS?

Have you had a chance to try the duckduckgo email aliases? It works super well.

Another example is the cash app in the states. Lots of young people treating that like their bank account.

It took me a long time to learn it, but once I did, it is an incredible mapping app that is so customizable. While you are getting used to it, Organic Maps is great and really intuitive. Just slightly basic for my needs.

Is the fact that you're using a bridge at all apparent to your WhatsApp friends? Or is nothing different as far as they are concerned? Also, does Element have a setting to prevent pictures and video from being automatically downloaded over cellular data?

OK thank you, I think that answers the question for me, I might want to go with something more user friendly to start with. I really like Manjaro but want to get away from all the criticisms its had lately.
