So I've been using Antergos Linux as a way to ease myself into Arch.

Gnome apparently has moved to Wayland so I thought "Oh I don't need the Xorg window server anymore, let's just delete the Pacman package for that..."

Oh. Oh crap.

That was a mistake.
...Gnome is gone.

.... Guess I got my excuse to install vanilla Arch.

    You can boot up with an arch Linux and then repair this :)

    Boot using live ArchLinux and chrooting into your installation partition, you can easily install Xorg, without actually booting into your base OS. 🎉

    Even if you only use Wayland apps, you will still need X for X forwarding in SSH

    @kenogo The post was mainly a joke. I was aware of what I was diving into.
