tbh it isn’t too bad, it almost felt a bit uhhhh cosplay-hardcore-ish? idk how to describe. There’s a big thing made about you having to configure the network, which you definitely do, but other than that everything seems to basically work out of the box.

Of course things can go wrong, which they did in my case (dual-boot issues with windows & linux affecting the network card) which made it so I took a full week to get to a decent install. So yeah there’s that.
