    I was on Ubuntu, then I switched to Debian, then Mint. Then I was like wow if this is so good I’m gonna try some more, and I dove headfirst. I didn’t run a distro more than a couple hours sometimes, never more than a week.

    Then I found Manjaro, which I tried and liked well enough except for all the Manjaro removed. I decided then that I could install Arch, how hard could it be? So I did, it took me like 3 days and I broke it dozens of times but I eventually got there (with sound even!) shortly before they brought back the install script. I want to try Gentoo but I don’t have time to compile everything, I understand they ship binaries now which I think is sweet but I’m happy with Arch.

    I like Arch for it’s KISS philosophy, the DIY attitude with which you approach it, the fine-grained control over every (most) part of the system, the AUR. But my favorite thing about Arch is the Wiki. It’s such a great resource, and yeah it applies to more than just Arch but like … why?

    I use Arch btw
