  • If you go into Arch knowing that you will probably need to spend more time on things that show up by default on other distributions and are okay with spending more time on the command line then you could be fine with Arch. Going through the basic Arch installation process leaves you with just the command line present, you’ll need to install your desktop environment of choice, along with any other software like steam or discord. Arch is rolling release so you get bleeding edge access to package updates, it’s great for staying up to date but it can sometimes lead to some packages breaking or some other system failure, I kept an eye on arch forums before updating to see if anything broke and what the fixes could be. For some it might be tedious to do those things and that’s okay, there are other distributions like Mint, Fedora, etc that will provide a less complicated experience
