Bros I been using Xubuntu for about 4 years now, super comfy. But I feel like Im ready to try Arch Linux, been using blackarch in the terminal on Termux, seems like a nice step up for me, since Im comfy with GNU/Linux now.

Anyone here made this jump?

Do it bro sid 04/14/20 (Tue) 06:41:52 No.13209

bro i switched to linux like 3 days ago, started with kali (lol, wannabe hax0rz), shit wouldn't play sound no matter what, switched to ubuntu, found it very n00bish, said fuck it, go all in or go home.

I figured it's lockdown time and I'm trapped in my home 24/7 anyways so I might as well install arch linux lol and I did that. Using arch since 2 days now. Had to read the wiki quite often tbh and still do but I think it's completely worth it.

Haven't even booted into my windows partition even once ( well only once to check if it still works lol ), enjoying my glorious arch install too much :). I knew fuck all about linux btw, learned it all on the fly and still am.

I would say, just do it. But be ready to devote time and effort. But also know that all that time and effort will pay off :)

Arch is great, but be prepared to do lots of reading and tinkering like the other Anon said. Do you plan on staying using xfce as a desktop environment? I went tiling wms when I switched to arch and I don't want to go back. I use dwm and while configuring was a bitch at first it's super comfy now.

Started with Mint back in 2014/2015, went through the DE variants of Ubuntu and Debian, got into Arch, tried Artix, tried PCLinuxOS, etc.... settled on Manjaro due to customisability and not having to manually update nor fix shit every week.

I installed Arch for the first time about 15 years ago. I've been messing with Gentoo a little before, with mediocre success. I think before that I've been using Debian and Suse, maybe Ubuntu.

But then Arch was really easy. If you can work with the terminal confidently, it's really not a big deal. Back then arch had an installation wizard tui, but it's not much harder without it now, just use the tutorial on the wiki. Arch may be more or less a minmal system, but really everything you can install is built to work pretty much out of the box. At this point I've spent a long time using both gentoo and arch and arch requires much less manual config.
