Hi I'm new here

Hi new user here. I installed Slackware64 Current the other day, then I followed this to enable multilib on my laptop, no problems so far I believe. I also installed slackpkg+ and enabled the multilib mirror of course and the AlienBOB one too just for installing Wine. One problem I had at first was that slackpkg upgrade-all now wanted me to upgrade a package from AlienBOB that was already on a superior version on Slackware64 proper (I think it was libass but I'm not 100% sure). I worked around this by putting PKGS_PRIORITY=( multilib alienbob:wine ) in slackpkgplus.conf and that seems to have fixed the issue but I'm not sure at all if this is the correct way to handle this, if there's a better way please let me now. Also while speaking of slackpkg+, just for confirmation, I have to put the items I have in my blacklist in the greylist now, right?
I installed sbopkg too and pointed it towards the current branch, because I would like to have Lutris too on my laptop. Now I feel a little lost though, I've been building webkit2gtk for 2 days now (I have very low specs on this laptop) and I think it'll take a couple more to finish, if there's a better possibly faster way to install this thing please let me know.
I'm aware of the Conty project and I use it of course but for some reason Conty doesn't play videos in some exotic titles I play from time to time and I'm installing the whole Wine thing natively just to check if they work that way.
Well that's all from me for now, I'm glad to be a Slacker finally. :D
