Arch Linux
It's absolutely crazy to me that there are unironically people recommending Arch to newbies.
What about EndeavorOS?
Depends on the person. If it's just someone that uses a PC for the browser and doesn't want to learn anything something like popOS or mint would do. If they are ok with learning some Linux/Arch basics, BTRFS + EndeavorOS + KDE is hard to beat and would be my first recommendation
Pff hater, Arch users are definitely not cultists who are obligatory to share their divine wisdom and forcibly announce that they are part of this cul... Hobby.
I use arch btw
i use arch btw
If you don't tell people you use Arch, then they come and install Ubuntu on your PC.
If you don't tell them, how'd they know you're better than them? Smh
I would say NixOS might be even more cultish. I am a part of that cult.
I wouldn't know, I've never met a person in real life professing to using arch BTW. I see it everywhere online though, but that might just be eight guys with a ton of sock puppet accounts for all I know.
Is arch linux even a thing, like Hanna Montana and Justin Bieber Linux is a thing?
Unironically a neat clean system
If I knew how to get it
Only to people who haven't been inducted to the cult of gentoo
I can't read "gentoo" without hearing the Weezer song "Getchoo" in my head.
Can’t spell anarchy without arch 🏴
