      Arch is developed under the keep it simple stupid design philosophy. It also has one of the most extensive linux manuals, a die hard user base, I use arch btw. And arch is often ahead of other distros with updates as the aur (arch user repository) is managed by users

      Once upon a time, it was rightly a hard distro for people who wanted to customize everything. So only professional users used it and it became some sort of meme that skrip kiddiz would use arch to show off like they’re a pro

      Those days are long gone, Arch has become a mainstream and relatively easy distro
