They say debian is free and has its promise, but Arch has like 2-4 maintainers?

    For those warning you away from Arch, it doesn’t have to be like that anymore.

    I installed Garuda as a Linux noob and it has been petty straightforward and problem free. You don’t have to build Arch by yourself in a cave from scraps anymore. Garuda supports Nvidia too.

    Just make sure you have pamac installed, it’s the one thing my build didn’t do and it made software installation and updates way easier.

      Is how I moved to gentoo. Used convenient gentoo based respin first to get familiar. … And also learned the trepidation was unfounded, and should not have listened to the “it’s hard” hype, and just have a go straight away.

      Arch even has a convenient installer these days I hear. … So you don’t even need to do the pesky inconvenience of reading the wiki guide and learning about your system. Now you can remain ignorant and still say “arch btw”.
