<h1>Frequently Unasked Questions</h1>
<h4>Why the name?</h4>
<p>
Uh... not for any particular reason. It was just a cool <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_hack">domain hack</a> with the .me domain, and it contains everyone's favorite math variables x, y, and z!
</p>
<h4>Help! I forgot my password and the reset password thing doesn't work!</h4>
<p>
Email us at <a href="mailto:help@exozy.me">help@exozy.me</a> and we can get it reset.
</p>
<h4>How much of exozyme's computational resources am I allowed to use?</h4>
<p>
There's no official limit! However, be courteous to the other users: don't unreasonably overuse our resources. So no cryptomining please! If you need a lot of computational power, ask about it on <a href="https://matrix.to/#/!epVJFHxAwGJBqjgGoQ:exozy.me?via=exozy.me&via=matrix.org">Matrix</a>.
</p>
<h4>How do I install software?</h4>
<p>
If you want to install a graphical app, try opening up Discover in a remote desktop session and searching for the app. Otherwise, try <a href="https://git.exozy.me/exozyme/exozyme/wiki/Nix">Nix</a>.
</p>
<h4>Why's the connection speed so slow?</h4>
<p>
Blame the ISPs. My ISP's download speed is quite fast, but its upload speed is horrendous. This translates to a low download speed for users like you. Most people have slow upload speeds too, so that makes the connection slow both ways. Not much we can do about it, sorry.
</p>
<h4>Can the admins see everything I do?</h4>
<p>
Files are your hard drive are visible only to admins unless you encrypt it. You can use things like <a href="https://www.cryfs.org/">cryfs</a> to encrypt your files. The KDE Plasma desktop has a nice Vaults feature in the system tray for file encryption. Admins cannot view your remote desktop sessions unless they change your password, so you can be sure that as long as your password hasn't been tampered with, your data is safe.
</p>
<h4>What kind of data does exozyme collect?</h4>
<p>
We don't collect any more data than what Arch Linux does by default, such as your IP address. Your data is never saved to anywhere else except on the exozyme server and no one can see it except for server admins. If you decide to delete your account, we will delete all of your data from the server.
</p>
<h4>The command line is behaving weirdly, commands I copied from the internet don't work, editing my <i>~/.bashrc</i> isn't working, and I can't change my shell!</h4>
<p>
This is all because we use <a href="https://fishshell.com/">Fish</a> as the default shell for new users since it's simpler and friendlier than the typical Bash. Unfortunately, Fish is not very compatible with Bash commands. If you're blindly copying commands from the internet (you probably shouldn't do that anyways), run <i>bash</i> first to get a Bash shell before pasting them in. If you want to run commands when starting the shell like a <i>~/.bashrc</i>, see <a href="https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/211529">this Stack Exchange post</a>. To change your shell, just ask about it.
</p>
<h4>Help! My remote desktop is glitching out and I want to reset it!</h4>
<p>
Log in to <a href="https://hub.exozy.me">exohub</a> or <a href="https://git.exozy.me/exozyme/exozyme/wiki/SSH">SSH</a> and run the command <i>pkill -9 -u $USER</i> to kill all your programs and processes. Note that you'll lose all unsaved work!
</p>
<h4>I need help with something!</h4>
<p>
You know the drill: ask on <a href="https://matrix.to/#/!epVJFHxAwGJBqjgGoQ:exozy.me?via=exozy.me&via=matrix.org">Matrix</a>! If you aren't able to do that, shoot us an email at <a href="mailto:help@exozy.me">help@exozy.me</a>.
