Tbf I've had a similar thing happen like 6 years ago. I've been using Linux still but at the time I didn't have much going on that system outside of a few games so it just turned into a long reinstall weekend. I forget exactly what happened but I also had another issue where I tried to install KDE Plasma desktop environment and it completely nuked my system. Idk if it was a user error or what.
I'm still a Linux fanboy but it's not without its own set of issues. I try to be a bit more careful in the terminal after all that and I haven't had any major issues since. I do need to do a fresh install sometime in the near future though.
