Oof. That, especially with hardware, is Linux on hard mode.
So much false!
It’s not my job to convince you otherwise. You can hold that belief if you’d like. But as others have said, what you are trying to do with an old chromebook is not the Linux experience. The klipper experience on a raspberry pi is closer, but you’re still trying to compare running something on a $35 computer to your windows experience.
Chromebooks usually just work for things most people want to do. Like browse the web, edit documents, print, listen to music or stream video.
Linux is a much bigger world and can be used “headless” like your klipper experience. Headless Linixservers run 98% of the Internet. The Linux Desktop is a different experience. Each flavor has its own design language and workarounds. That can be very frustrating for someone who is used to the workarounds in windows, but isn’t prepared for the workaround in Linux.
At any rate, batch files are scripts written for windows. Bashrc files or sh files are similar, but written for Linux. IIRC, fluidterm includes a linux and a browser based version. Imagine trying to play an xbox game on a PlayStation. It is a different OS.
