I was doing an update on my desktop because I wanted to make a test install of invidious before I launch it on a server. It had been a while since I had run an update on it. Somehow it killed it. Thankfully the files are still there.
I'm now running off of a live USB and I'v just mounted and symbolically linked all the files I care the most about.
Point is I had a lot of downtime in my productivity in general.
