I know my way around a command line. I work in IT, but when it comes to my personal fun time more often than not I'm quite lazy. I use windows a lot because just plugging in anything or installing any game and it just working is great.
But support for windows 10 is ending and I should probably switch sonner rather than later, so I'm wondering if Arch would be a good pick for me? For reference, I mostly game and do Godot stuff in my free time.
I will say a day or two later I am really enjoying it thus far. A bit turned off by the manual install but now I know exactly what is on my system, like you said "curated" and I am really liking yay.
That's nice to know. I'm low on storage 256gb SSD so minimalism is quite important for me. But you have to be aware that there will be few hiccups especially when you don't update for over a month, so make sure you don't land into that. Also avoid arch linux discord/reddit unless you need help. They are the most toxic, entitled people you have ever seen.
As I was searching for a few questions I had I ended up on the reddit sub. So unfortunately got exposed already to it... toxic is right! Sheesh. Thank you for the tip about keeping up to date. That was sort of a question I had. I'll probably just have it on a scheduled task.
You could search for solutions on reddit but I wouldn't recommend making a post. You also have arch forum which comes up on Google searches and it most likely has the solution anyways. Lemmy arch instance is pretty chill. Have a nice time mate.
Likewise, thank you.
