I looked through most of the files when someone else mentioned I can’t use /home anywhere but I’ll cat them all out and copy them below, if I find one I’ll try to update it.

There is a /home/anakin here, and I also pasted this file above. I assume it’s proper as it defines the home directory but I can change it

I was trying to set up raspberry pi router with OpenWRT a while ago, which is what all the comments at the bottom are about. Additionally, I didn’t think the hostname mattered, and I ran sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake /home/anakin/Nixos#nixos out of curiosity because I don’t know if I was jsut that dumb this whole time and that doesn’t get anywhere.

This file is full of junk because I was playing around with some stuff when I was trying to learn what sort of programs I wanted to use, as well as the inputs for trying to make the Zen browser work (The reason I am trying to do flake things at all).

I’m not seeing any problematic /home references here, but I have been staring at my terminal for a while now, and absolutley could have missed it. Or I have some other error I’m totally overlooking, Apologies for basically pasting a wall of text but i’m not sure of an esaier way
