Hallo Chillfan,

A quote from the guide:
> user@devuan:~$ echo "xfce4-session" > ~/.xinitrc


I already noticed this in your upgrade guide – and especially then it's not unlikely to break things when using this kind of redirection, as a .xinitrc might already exist. Regarding the unexperienced audience you appear to target with your guides, I think there should be at least a footnote that informs about this risk and perhaps also mentions that this is called a "redirection", as a starting point for a related websearch.
