alcamore1487y@Diactoros was trying out bedrock Linux, which allows you to use multiple package managers without them conflicting by sandboxing them... I think.
Installed a minimal Ubuntu, and wanted to delete it to install a different version.
rm -rf /bedrock/strata/*
I think either rm followed a symlink, or I had my Arch installation mounted in there as well without noticing. And suddenly it was hallway destroyed before I noticed.
Good times. Deleted that Ubuntu strata too though, so there's that.

Accidentally used rm -rf /*
(Actual command was a bit more involved, but it did pretty much the same thing)
Laptop doesn't boot now. Saved my home directory though.
Hooray.
