โOh god, they will immediately be able to tell I am a fraud who has no idea what heโs doing when I tell them I use Ubuntuโ
Ubuntu is fine and I actually am on Ubuntu after using Arch for many years
I use Ubuntu. I think it's funny how Arch users immediately assume they know more about Linux than me because of my distro choice. My hobby is learning about Linux and I can do that perfectly from my Ubuntu machine.
I've used Arch in the past, and let me tell you, nothing crazy is going on in there.
Yes, Ubuntu sucks because they are forcing Snaps on people while snaps are slow as hell. Thankfully they haven't fully shoved snaps down our throats. If they don't make snaps faster before shoving them down my throat, I'll just distro hop. Probably to Debian. I love Debian.
Arch users HAVE to know a lot because their updates break it conatantly
Honestly I've found it to be surprisingly stable, and the only time the system broke, it was my own fault.
It sounds like you have used it extensively then, because the myth is spread by people who never tried.
Arch user here. I have no idea what I'm doing. Killing Floor just crashed my graphics card or something to crash and my monitors aren't working after reboots. Oh god
They do know this is a popular myth spread around by the antiquities of debian/mint/ubuntu users who wait a few years for Arch users to locate any bugs.
