Nice plan, I used a symlink to quickly heal fixed paths in configs like
ln -s /home/NewAffirmingName/ /home/OldName/
That way if a setting I transferred over is trying to pull a file from /home/OldName/Gamesave instead of ~/Gamesave it will still work... unless it doesn't recognize symlinks... but for a lot of stuff it has been working.
I finally did this earlier today :)
I know I felt pretty awesome when I did it. Infinitely better than what I had previously, not only was my account name dated, but I had a picture of me before I grew my hair out as the account picture...
I hated it every time it popped up.
Im happy to say, I have zero proper security practices, 90% of my machines run as root >:3 also CONFIG_MULTIUSER=N is something I have done, so I funny enough cannot relate
There also this scripterino which do it for you, and keep your user at 1000.

Bit off topic, but what's the purpose of the '.[^.]*’ regex there? Wouldn't a wildcard * character suffice?
And Here I was thinking how naming my host "Archbtw" would be super original :(.
I want to do this but I'm scared of my transphobic parents seeing it
