Arch users, please get off your high horse and chill the fuck out. Stop pushing Arch on any rando you meet.
I'm an Arch user, and believe me when I say: Arch is NOT a desktop distro. It's not a server distro, either. The value of Arch is precisely that: it's a non-specific Linux distribution.
That means that things that are expected in, say, desktop use case may not come out of the box and need to be installed in post, by the user themself.
Most of the supposed advantages of Arch can easily be chalked up to drawbacks, when you want a nice-and-ready desktop OS, just because of Arch's low-assumption nature.
You only install Arch when you know you need Arch and can handle the jank. Otherwise, choose another distro.
@mo It doesn't suck. For *my specific use case*. I know my way around the OS, and can add or fix whatever's needed adding or fixing.
If you're a rando off the streets, it will suck, big time. But a rando is, I would say, already served well enough with your Manjaros and Ubuntus and Fedoras or what have you.
@drq I fully agry
@drq Archlinux assumes you want poetteringware.
