    Arch is great, but it needs longer explanations considering the user needs to do a lot more. Sometimes you find them, but other times you find a snarky superuser with zero people skills.

    It’s a shame they aren’t government standard, so I could take a local course to become a snarky superuser too.

    Most of it involves everyday Linux usages, but some of it is specific to Arch and it breaks so hard. It’s not a great thing when you’re stupid busy and don’t have the headroom to get to the bottom of it. Sometimes all you get is vague theories on how a fix might occur. After that you’re playing shell games trying to debug your problems.

    Definitely recommend for pro-Linux people that have a breakable laptop that can go on the backburner.

        In working through the installation I was the least disappointed I’ve ever been with an OS. The result was something I truly liked. If I nail down every single problem it could be my all time favourite machine.
