The last Windows version I used was Windows 7 I guess, but merely to play some games. In daily use, the last Windows version I used was Windows XP

You can configure wireguard to achieve this solution.

You can always enable mDNS/DNS-SD (aka zeroconf) protocol as well

Does any of these in https://alternativeto.net/software/pastebin/?license=opensource works for you?

Good for you that you like your XFCE environment

I would like to see how your desktop is, if you don't mind

However, again, it's personal preference

Agreed. I think it's not about distros we should have pay attention, but desktop environments.

And about "most appealing" DE I think it's subjective. Surely KDE has the most flexible structure and may be exactly what you want, but Gnome is also appealing for some people (myself included).

Again, there is no right or wrong, just personal preferences

Crypto is scam.

I don't hate. It's just a piece of software. I just use Linux because I like the privacy and I'm a tech savvy person

I don't wanna learn Windows whatsoever, cause I can do everything I need on Linux and it serves me well

Wow!

How do you smoke black coffee?

Creating a new profile, as suggested, seems to solve the issue for my main profile. That's interesting, cause I think it shouldn't solve the issue at all, once I did not change anything at the main profile

Yes, it does happen in Troubleshoot Mode. And based on the article you sent, it does mean it's a Firefox issue, not a extension one

I didn't even know that there was a troubleshoot mode. I'll try and come back here

I guess you can set a host on your /etc/hosts to redirect all your pterodactyl.example.com to a local ip. Also, if you need access from other computers on the local network, I think you can set up a local DNS server (such as PiHole or AdGuard Home) to reach the same solution but for all address running though your DNS server

I think Gnome VS KDE it's just a POV

Your argument makes sense that KDE and Cinnamon can be welcoming to Windows users. However I can argue that it can also make these newcomers to keep a "windows-like" mindset and that can be frustrating.

If a newcomer comes to Gnome, due to it's totally different paradigm, it may induce this newcomer to have an open mind and, therefore, be more welcoming to linux experience.

I don't think one argument or the other is right or wrong. I think both arguments are valid and that's just a different perspective. I, personally, think that a totally new paradigm is good to newcomers, but be free to disagree, since you understand that there is no right or wrong regarding this topic

I like the mint project, but I dislike how it's done

I don't suggest mint to anyone anymore. I rather suggest Fedora or PopOs

And did u find out?

To use pacman you must have root permissions. You can do this by using sudo.

If your installation is correct, you must just use sudo pacman -S kdeplasma-addons

sudo is a command that escalates your user's privileges to have root power

pacman -S installs a package

I'm glad you solved!

Also, in case you wouldn’t mind helping me with this other thing that is outside the scope of the initial complaint: where do I find the KDE cube options? It doesn’t seem to be in the Window management options, nor do I see a downloadable version of the such. The KDE plasma version is 6.0.5.

Well, I may take a look, but I'm not a KDE user at all. I'm on Gnome for over 5 years already.

Try Settings > Window Management > Desktop Effects > "Windows Management" section > Overview and configure it.

However looks like to make it work, you should have at least 3 virtual desktops.

I suggest you to open a new thread with this question, cause I really don't know enough about KDE

Not sure what you are suggesting, but it seems that the hard drive is the last active option in the boot order for that VM. I assume you are suggesting to make it the priority boot device?

Exactly

I still don’t know how to switch between the keyboard layouts, and with this installation I opted for the US keyboard layout to be the default one, but have since added one more layout to the list. I couldn’t place the keyboard layout widget for some reason, and there is no indication of what layout is chosen on the SDDM screen at all.

Right now, the user is blocked due to too many attempts to enter password, so I will have to wait.

Read my other comment. Maybe this is the breeze setting that does not have any way to change layout at the logging screen. Also I suggest you to reboot your VM after these changes you made

EDIT 2: I still do not know how to switch between keyboard layouts in SDDM, and I can’t find information regarding that.

It depends on the theme you're using. Change the file /etc/sddm.conf and comment the line where KDE is setting the theme. Should be something line

    
[Theme]

Current=blablabla
ThemesDir=blablabla

  

Just comment putting a hashtag before these lines

Maybe you have to edit using Vim, Emacs or Nano at the tty

The keyboard layouts should be at the top of the logging screen at the default sddm theme

EDIT: also, Ctrl+Alt+F2 just produces a black screen.

Then try Ctrl+Alt+F1
