Arch is mainly for people who prefer instant updates on every software. Like developers, some hardcore gamers want to tweak their system too deep and have too much time to fix if it breaks.

Snapshots are a big relief, as they allow you to directly boot into the previous working version. But if the bootloader itself failed, you might need a live USB to fix it.

Arch is not bad or unfriendly at all. It allows users to deeply customize their system how they want it, and that’s what causes an unstable system at the end. Also, the use of too many AUR softwares at the system level is another reason. It is not official. So by using AUR heavily, we can’t guarantee it will work with other system software.

If you use Arch with snapshots and only install a minimal amount of AUR system-level software, then it’s completely fine for daily use.

Other serious struggles.

• Very new releases bring a lot of bugs. Recently I saw my screen was flashing when I opened settings. Also, crashes can occur constantly. You have to report it to get an immediate fix from developers.

• Snapshots can take a fair amount of your storage. But you can control it in Snap.

• AUR packages are not tested for their authenticity or security at all.

• A breakage or failure to boot can terrify newbies. Unlike Fedora or Debian, there are no built-in recovery tools out of the box. Everything is the user’s responsibility.

Arch is all about user freedom. All those crashes and failures are not too hard to fix, but you have to spend much time on them. If you have pre-cations like a live USB and snapshots, then there is nothing to worry about at all.

Unlike Windows, Linux demands users know it more and read long wiki pages, which is good in a sense.

Many people in the Linux community want their system built from scratch. So Arch stands in between, distributions like VoidLinux and Gentoo.

That’s why I completely eliminated Windows from my life and switched to Linux.

The upvotes mean some other people too don’t like Fedora like me. Nothing more than that.

A distro can be perfect for some and, at the same time, hated by some others. That’s normal.

Why it’s not for me. Reasons:

Maintained by a corporation. Probably it’s their testing ground.

Too much bloatware is preinstalled.

Too many updates, just like Arch. But arch feels more cleaner and faster anyway.

Require rpm fusion.

Crashes often.

There is always a connectivity issue on RPM Fusion servers.

Heavily depended upon flatpak.

Many applications don’t have native Fedora packages or repos.

When I type “yes” for view pkgbuild, it always shows failed to retrieve message. Then without asking for a retry, it asks to continue with installation!

Hm… btw, I hate fedora.

I don’t mean it happened right now. I mean it often happens. Probably when i tweak too much or more installs from AUR.

archdebian? arch+debian dual boot?

It’s not here, dude. It’s inside your mind.

I said these browsers currently allow installing MV2 extensions; I didn’t predict about the future. Ok, ungoogled chromium will remove the flag in the future, and it can also affect helium. But it’s in the future; currently that flag is still there.

Brave is sued for its shady practices, ok! But we are talking about the installation of Manifest V2 extensions in the Chromium-based browsers, which the title explicitly says Firefox is the only browser that now allows you to install ublock origin, which is misleading. Brave still supports ublock origin, no matter if someone hates the browser or someone found it self-hosted.

So what do you guys find bad about me mentioning Brave? Also please mention a word: I’m saying these browsers are going to support MV2 extensions (ublock origin) forever.

Brave, Ungoogled Chromium, and Helium all still support uBlock Origin.

We have Ray-Ban glasses.

And ignores what we really need.

Somewhat disturbing…

Yeah. But mostly it’s just a scam or low quality products, treatments. Thousands of government hospitals in india doesn’t have any facilities at all. Private hospitals are working to harvest money as much as possible. Even in government hospitals patients have to sleep in floor.

Also most of the health care products available in markets are not so healthy or even original products at all. People pay to buy things that destroy their health because of no other way.

They are saying india is improving by hiding all these ugly facts. No matter which party currently ruling india, every government is heavy trying to act like they don’t see these at all. They stole their own people.

Btw, it’s really not so proud to say an indian. Never has been. 🫥

(Nowadays india censors alot of the web and force other country based services too to moderate some contents on social media. So am a little bit worried that my account will be banned or comment deleted for saying these even though india have no control over lemmy or this instance. If this will be considered as spreading hate speech about india or then government, then it’s not. Everything am said is just truth. As an india i experienced it alot and it’s so disturbing than it looks.)

Add india too to the denylist.

Along with facial recognition they must ask us to upload some proofs to prove we are humans.

The truth is, they already have all of our data.
