My user account doesnt have sudo despite being in sudoers. I cant run new commands i have to execute the binary. Grub takes very long to load with "welcome to grub" message. I just wanted a stable distro as arch broke and currupted my external ssd

The drive was never used as a boot 1. Only for media: videos, photos
All right. Hmm.
I'd still probably try booting up with the external drive disconnected – should be an easy test – and seeing if the pre-GRUB delay doesn't show up. If either the BIOS or GRUB is trying to talk to the drive and it's taking a while to respond because it's having problems, something which I have certainly seen many a (well, rotational) drive do, that might account for the delay.
