    Maybe it’s just me, I always had issues with Ubuntu and Debian based distros that I didn’t have with Arch based distros. Why do people say Arch is harder? That was never my experience. I’ve been using endeavorOS and it’s been pretty great.

      It really comes down to if you are trying to use newer hardware or not. Debian based systems usually run fine out of the box on older systems.

      For newer hardware your going to want new drivers and kernel versions which you get with a rolling release distro.

      For me it’s the wiki. Arch just explaining so simply. Searching an issue for LMDE just lead to forums. And the Debian or Ubuntu wikis don’t seem as good as arch.

      Plus must searches for <other distro> issue seem to lead to forums and random “run this code”. All arch searches led back to the Wiki. All hail the wiki.

      But srsly. I feel like I’m LEARNING Linux with arch. Rather than just running fixes for the other distros.
