Ok. I’ve downloaded, tar and gunzipped the files for it.
Then did a make build and then make install. Now my system won’t start. What do I do?

In the olden days, I would have spent hours to fix it, completely forget everything I've done over the course of those several hours and then having to reinstall it bcs I've broken something else in those unsuccessful attempts and now dont have the energy to figure out this clusterfuck too.
Ahh, good memories.

Why doesnt the mass public liek Linux!?
This is why I’ve yet to make the leap from windows. I just don’t have the technical chops nor spare time to make my OS a hobby.
Not really the case with user-focused distros these days. I have far more driver woes when I have to deal with Windows.
In fairness, I suck at Linux. Ubuntu and Linux Mint are relatively easier systems. No one I know has issues with Ubuntu fwiw
Mint broke all the time for me last time i tried using it. After reinstalling it for like the 8th time, I just decided to take a break from Linux. This was like 6 years ago though.

Would change distro to something easier to maintain (like Arch for example), rice the experience to the oblivion, keep it forever :3
Easier to maintain... Arch?
If OP managed to break a distro that releases once every 2 years and then only issues stable updates I don't think they'll cope well with a rolling distro.
(that’s the joke, and then I replied with Gentoo being beginner friendly)
Edit but you’re totally right, I wouldn’t be able to troubleshoot Arch or anything tougher

Thanks, I’ll try Arch ^^ I hear Gentoo is also really beginner friendly

Pffft. I just boot from a live cd so changes are gone at reboot. Why install if you're just going to break something?
My laptop's mic seems to have some contact issues. It never worked for a second on windows. I put Linux on it, and it usually just works. When it doesn't, some percussive maintenance does a quick job of fixing it. I guess I was dealt the opposite hand than usual.
No, that's how it usually goes these days.
If you reinstall enough things, enough times, it becomes a kink.
