Nothing to show…just about to get started again…
(Two hours later…)
Okay, maybe not. I just updated my OS to Pop!OS 21.10 last week and oops! Unity problems again.
I got it solved, but it took a while and I won’t be starting a new game tonight.
If anyone else is using Pop!OS and HAS NOT updated yet, you might want to read through here before you update the OS to the newest:

Unity WILL work in Pop!OS 21.10, but probably not without some finagling. I just got a new test project started. I can open the project and open my scripts in VS Code by clicking on the script in Unity (this was broken before). I have not yet tried to run a build, but I’m keeping my fingers crossed.
That said, I didn’t want to write any of that tonight. I originally just wanted to post that, hey, I want to try making some games again and get back into GameDev, new year plans, getting motivated, and all that jazz.
Instead I ran into a “You updated your OS and now nothing works again” kind of problem.
Lucky me. Okay, so…tomorrow…maybe I’ll start tomorrow. It’s time for bed now.
(For the record, the older that I get, the more thankful I am that I have MY problems and not someone else’s. I totally understand that someone somewhere was in a car accident tonight, someone somewhere lost a loved one, someone somewhere is in a really bad situation, or worse…I totally get it.
I’m really thankful that my biggest problem today is that I didn’t get to start my new game because Unity is being a stooge again. I’m grumpy, but I’m not an ingrate.)
Okay, I’m ready to start making games again…tomorrow.
