Broke pinebook GUI, what to do, fix or install new?
#1
So a while back I managed to break the stock Neon OS when trying to switch from Plasma to something else. There was some change I did to systemctl and it broke it. It will boot to a command prompt. I set it aside and ignored it for a while.

I know Neon has been out of style for a while so I don't know how much effort I should put into fixing it, or should I just put something else on it?

I'm noticing that there isn't a nice list of "mainstream" Linux operating systems for it like there is for the Pinebook Pro, which sucks.

Is there an OS I can install onto it without it being to hacky to get it working? I just want something I can use instead of having to tinker with all the time.

At the moment I'm using NetBSD from a SD card but I have to use a different WiFi adapter.

Thanks!
