How to run Melodics on Linux using Bottles

TL;DR: Melodics runs out-of-the-box with the current version of Bottles and its default settings. However Melodics uses your browser to handle logins, and expects your browser to be able to call the Melodics app once logged-in. Read "Melodics Desktop Integration" below to set that up.

Versions tested:

Upgrade LineageOS with Magisk

WARNING: tested only on my setup (LineageOS 18.1 on instantnoodle), other setups may break and brick the device!

Step-by-step instructions (for reinstalling patched boot.img for Magisk):

upgrade LineageOS to the latest by the standard way in Android GUI (download + install + reboot)
if using not the latest Magisk: wipe old (possibly hidden) Magisk app then install the up-to-date one from the official Magisk github repo
~~install (git clone) payload_dumper from GitHub (in Termux or in an SSH session on the Android device) for the 1st time, or update (git pull) later~~
~~the Android terminal session: wget the same LineageOS nightly image installed in step 1 from https://download.lineageos.org/~~

Long-form

Arch Linux btrfs install

0. Prerequisites

Latest Arch Linux install iso because those have newer kernels and more bugfixes in btrfs.
Have previous experience with installing Arch (like you can install arch with a blind fold).

1. Parititions

We will ne two of them, one for /boot and the other one will be a btrfs partition with subvolumes.

/dev/sda1 - this will be /boot with vfat filesystem because UEFI or syslinux for legacy BIOS boot
