Can confirm. Easiest install was my first one. Hardest install was my most recent one.
why?, how did you configured your last install?
First install was Ubuntu 9.04 on a very basic and mainstream Dell desktop at the time. Most recent was Arch on a 2013 MacBook Air. Honestly, the only thing that made this complicated was that the bootloader was so out of date that it didn’t recognize the newer NVME drive I put in it. After installing Arch, I messed around for a while getting the Fn/shortcut keys set up perfectly. I would not have even thought of doing that back in 2009.
After 14 years of debian, I decided to give arch a try… maybe I’m doing something wrong but it feels pretty easy for now for what I was expecting
Yeah I use arch on some of my computers and really don’t get what people are talking about. As long as you’re fairly comfortable doing some things from the command line it’s really easy to maintain
Until you run it for more than a year and have more packages installed. Like everyday something doesn’t work for me (ok granted some of it is my own fault). My arch install feels like it’s held together by ductape and some silly string.
it just works for me and thats why im still using it.
but then again i dont overcomplicate things.

That’s an
f(x) = xwhen it should be anf(x) = x - 1000.You can’t say that, if you don’t see the scale!
f(x) = x - a🙂Better 😁
Why are you assuming that the y scale doesn’t start at -1000?
Because you can clearly see the X axis?
The placement of the x axis says nothing about the values on the y axis. By convention it’s often placed at y=0, but plenty of plots make this impossible or impractical or simply not desired.
Same thing with development.
This is how I got to Arch, or is it just a middle stop?
I always assumed everything else is a middle stop on the way to LFS, though I might prove myself wrong someday.
I’m way over this. I keep a lot of it standard now except some interface changes. Less things to break then
I think you have the axes reversed…? Or maybe I didn’t get the joke? The technical needs are caused by higher technical ability, so the ability should be the x axis and the needs should be y.
No the computer knows how technically capable you are and gives you problems that will still frustrate you
There’s still no Arch-based OotB distro with refind, booster initrc, s6-init & s6-rc, turnstile + seatd session with touch-friendly notification-center in qt for wayland with pipewire.
