So I managed to solve it. After searching around, many posts pointed to removing the xdg-desktop-portal-gnome package, which would help for other issues as well. This didn't work for me though.
It turned out I had to remove the ~/.local/share/flatpak/db/documents file. After that I could copy files again. Now on to the next issue where the linux-surface kernel doesn't get signed with my own MOK after the kernel gets updated.
How did you manage to do that? Installing Windows 11 only took me about 30 minutes last time.
Installing Debian takes about the same time.
And what does a VPS even have to do with all of this?
Not neccessarily wrong, but you could also check the first bit. If it's 1 the number is uneven, if it's 0 the number is even. That seems to be more efficient.
Is the Arch community that bad? I followed the wiki to install it on my Surface Go 2 with secureboot enabled. Is it Arch then? I did update my system in the last 37 seconds, so it's definitely Arch then? Right?
I used Edge since the beginning, until they decided to fill it with bloat. It's getting worse than Chrome. Now I'm using Firefox that is still a browser instead of an application trying to replace all applications.
Same here, the only downside is that I'm having issues with some thumbnails that don't show. For example for the Cox 'n Crendor Show I had to find a soundcloud rss link for Antennapod to show the image. It didn't work when I subscribed to that podcast from within the app.
The best way to learn how it works is to mess with it. I have reinstalled my Surface Go 2 numerous times because I messed something up. After leaving Windows I have used dual boot with Arch and Chrome OS for a while, and now I just use Arch including secureboot enabled.
Windows only updates the bootloader, it doesn't touch Linux partitions. After an update you just have to fix the bootloader again which isn't too hard if you know how it works.
That's probably because you're not using Spotify. I've been using Spotify using the family subscription of a friend of mine, and the recommendations are pretty good. Still not as good as they were on Apple Music, but hey, it's free for me.
I think you have to use grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg to generate the boot entries in grub. I just installed Arch on my Surface Go 2 following the wiki, and I also missed that at first.
You can do that by using arch-chroot after mounting the root and boot partition following the wiki.
