Is Arch Linux really the best distro for a modern rig gaming/coding? or am I just falling for the meme? I thought Pop, Fedora were also good for that?

Yes. Sane distro that basically hands you the steering wheel and doesn't care if you can't drive.
Colton Ross
Works for me, yeah. Pop is a nice idea but it's gimped because it's based on Ubuntu. Fedora might be okay though.

arch is comfy, once you get past the install and installing all the packages u need
Mason Russell
but installation is trivial
>pacstrap /mnt base linux linux-firmware
what is there to be filtered by? formatting your drive?
Gabriel Gray
fuck off faggot, did i say it was hard? it just takes time like installing all the packages u will need
Matthew Gutierrez
>all packages you will need
calm down clown, you can install packages when you need them
Grayson White
if you're new to linux, meme waste of time
if you want to learn more about linux itself, good hobby
Jaxon Gonzalez
Arch is unironically my favourite just-werks distro.
>pacstrap what you need
>setup bootloader
>never have to worry ever again
Landon Jones
who cares
theres more noob friendly material for debian/ubuntu

Sure, I'm not saying newbies should go for it, I'm countering your assertion that it's just a hobbyist distro.

isnt using Arch and the AUR trusting some user from who knows where and their repo? fedora and ubuntu/pop/mint dont seem to have this problem
Liam Smith
The most annoying thing about arch is.... Packagekit doesnt work that well with alpm i guess. Other than that its like, the dostro equivalent of the puzzle piece in the meme where the guy puts the one missing puzzle piece in the back of his head.
Caleb Sanders
The AUR is, yes. But that is not a part of Arch, they do not support it, and it is not enabled by default. It's the same thing as rpmfusion on Fedora, so yes, it does have that 'problem'. Ubuntu has/had PPAs but now they've gone full retard with snap.
Jaxson Stewart
>what is aliases
Luis Russell
installing crap with like 1 vote on the AUR is kinda sus ngl
Jaxson Turner
Yes that is exactly what the aur is. This user is missing a puzzle piece.
Camden Wright
Pop, Flatpaks and OpenSnitch and youre good
Angel Howard
>needs an alias to cope with shittiest name for a package manager ever
Robert Ortiz
Just use gufw.
Owen Cook
