Can we please just ban distro war ragebait?
It’s 2025 and I’m sick and tired of it. You can feel cool for using a specific distro for all I care, you are embarrassing yourself at worst. You are toxic for shitting on other distros or creating an adversarial narrative tho
Please, sir, do the needful
He has switched to Linux Mint instead
I mean, good for him I guess? Comparing Mint to Arch is about as pointless as comparing Mint to headless Debian.
Why
Makes some good points, mint is the closest experience you can get to windows. And one thing I think people who are getting uppity about the idea of that don’t get is, if you want more mainstream adaptation of Linux, YOU. NEED. THAT.
I remember the story of a man trying to get his mom onto Linux and she broke down crying at one point because learning all the new things was stressful for her, completely turned her off of Linux.
Mint isn’t for the sweaty arch-bros of the world, it’s a valuable onboarding tool for the rest of us who didn’t spend our childhood scripting shell commands to do random shit on our PC’s in grade school. IMHO, Adapt to accessibility or get the hell out of the way.
I dunno, I use Garuda and it’s an Arch distro. It’s been super user friendly and I’ve only had to learn console stuff when I wanted to mess with stuff most casual users wouldn’t be bothered with.
And maybe you would say, “well that’s not really representative of a normal Arch install” but isn’t that the point of different distros? That anyone can build on functionality to do something like make Arch more user friendly?
An update black screened his system and corrupted his time shift backups. So he gave Linux Mint a shot and has been using it for several weeks.
Could very well happen on Mint as well. Should switch to atomic, if that’s his main concern.
The dumbest possible choice, IMTO
Everyone knows that’s Ubuntu
Y’all are tripping, dude barely badmouthed arch at all
Maybe shouldn’t have used a clickbait title then?
Just shows how many people didn’t actually watch the video ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ that’s on them not me
I watch a lot of his videos. But I didn’t watch this one because I loathe and resent clickbait titles. I would imagine a fair number of people chose not to watch and down voted because of the clickbait title alone.
How would you title video where you talk about reasons why you’ve stopped using Arch?
"This goes against my distro choice and I need validation to feel superior! "
Reading the comments, it’s obvious they either didn’t watch the video and those that did, missed the point of what he was saying and got butthurt instead… Internet comments on a nutshell
