This dead horse is pulp by now
If we keep beating it for long enough, thermodynamics says it might spontaneously turn back into a horse.
And that horse will be using arch btw.
man I knew this was going to be rough when I saw him wearing a vegan shirt but god DAMN
“All Arch users are stupid vegan crossfitters who never shut up and contribute nothing to society and the only thing they ever care about is making their desktop look l33t and Arch is a horrible distro and did I mention all Arch users are stupid?”
Oh. My. Sides.
I switched from Ubuntu to Arch because I was sick of packages not compiling due to a complete lack of dependency management. I use stock KDE with zero frills and I spend most of my time hacking on open source projects. I never tell anyone what OS I use (unless they ask for recommendations for their new machine, and I’m prepared to also tell them why I personally prefer it) because they don’t care. I’m a normal guy who keeps myself to myself and hates the people who think a pretty desktop is more important than a usable system just as much as everyone else.
However, I use Arch, and Arch bad, which means I must be the most annoying person on the planet.

Spot on! You could have left out all the text after that.
You use Linux. All Linux users are elitist evangelical douchebags who make every conversation about Linux and how great it is even though it’s worse than Windows. Also you’re probably a criminal, since most Linux users are hackers, and I don’t associate with criminals.
Stereotypes are great, aren’t they?
Does that mean in your analogy that all linux users are femboys 👉👈
if they use gentoo…
Needs a Steam Deck owner in the corner playing games, wearing headphones, and ignoring all questions.
I might have created this long before Steam Deck was a thing and just reposted it for fake internet points.
I’ll never forget the first time I successfully installed arch and got my I3 set up juuust like I wanted it. It felt like I did something. It was great. Fuck you!
Fuck you, too 😘
Me being an arch using vegan with a man-bun makes this feel like a personal attack.
But once I get my new arch setup working I’ll install gimp on it and create a meme making fun of you!
And you’ll finally get your sound working on your new laptop after weeks of messing with pulse audio and realizing you just needed to install sof-firmware but didn’t scroll far enough in the wiki to see that, but now your pulse audio config is so messed up it’s just easier to reinstall Arch again

Step 1: install pipewire
there is no step 2

Wtfff this guy knows a lot of Linux

Just restore a snapshot. Or just check which packages are gonna get updated. OR just don’t update right before you have to do critical work.
If none of those work for you, then Arch isn’t for you. That’s fine too. I also sometimes get intrusive thoughts telling me to just go back to Mint. 😁
Downvote for vegan. Thats just unnecessary bullying without getting the point. But I also dont know many “influencer hipsters” which are always annoying, no matter what they do
I love how “unbiased” it is and I’m not even an arch user.
Yah, I’m a huge fan of factual content. Biased people suck.
Not sure if ironic, or an incredible idiot.
I actually encoutered this the other day.
Me: “Yeah I need reliability for work and sometimes I just don’t have time to repair stuff. Last time I was on rolling release some update fucked my system right before an important deadline”
Other person: “It wOn’T bReAk If YoU UndErStANd iT”
._.
Anyway stable is awesome
Yep and that’s why I refuse to use rolling distros. I don’t need the latest update of everything to game. Give me a stable system any day instead.
Debian or openSUSE Leap for me.
Arch + BTRFS snapshots might be great. I am trying that out currently, but will probably just stay on Fedora Kinoite
Only ever recorded instance of hat-wearing Linux user saying “I’m in” and not meaning an access acquisition
I’ll have you know that I eat a vegetarian not vegan diet and I really don’t have a man bun (got no hair for that) … The stickers on the laptop however really felt like you took a photo of my machine.
Also if it wasn’t obvious I run arch
I would like this comic done by an arch user.
I want to see Debain users and Fedora users faces when they noticd they don’t have access the AUR or PKGBUILDs.
I want to see them running sudo make install to install stuff from git.
Also reading the Arch wiki for so long is something new arch users probably do. I installed arch for tens of times btw and for me the system already runs with the installation media.
I am very sure no Debian or Fedora user is done after the installer finishes. Then comes the tricky part of the setup. The one that takes days. Adding ppas and making stuff work fedora doesn’t package.
This process starts with arch right away. From the moment i chroot into my installation.
I actively maintain ~9 computers in my house running arch. Many of them have dual boot arch. E.g. one arch for work, one arch for everything else. One arch for music production, one arch for everything rlse. I run arch on my webserver. I run arch on my home sevrer. I run arch on my wifes gaming desktop. I run arch on my wifes laptop. I run arch on my kids netbook. i run arch on rasberry pi.
btw.
I am always a bit disapointed when I install debian every couple of years.
Like, after 1.5 hours, I am like “what, that was all?” Most of the stuff I need is installed by default, just add Jetbrains toolbox, install my ide, add a few more packages and git clone my current project.
Edit: autocorrect changed git to it
Like you don’t need to fix shit with Fedora
It’s good but it’s not left perfect
Tbh I don’t remember the last time I had to fix something on Fedora…
For me:
- remove fedora flatpak
- add flathub
- remove preinstalled bloat (especially annoying on GNOME as these apps all have weird names)
- add user to
libvirt plugdevgroups - setup automatic updates is weird, packagekit sucks a bit
- Gnome software sucks, KDE Discover + Flatpak is way easier. But the flatpak backend is probably preinstalled
- add rpmfusion on KDE needs CLI poorly, but nothing unfixable
- install
libavcodec-freeworld
archinstall # btrfs # user account in wheel # install plasma-meta flatpak podman distrobox fish tmux konsole # I guess thats it? su $USERNAME && systemctl enable --now sddm sudo sddm # login # Open Discover, install apps from Flathub # install stuff from Arch repos # install Ubuntu, Debian or Fedora packages with a fitting Distrobox, maybe root, to avoid weird AUR stuff breaking your systemI literally never used Arch and install took not very long after finding out what a chroot is and how to reboot from that.
