What are you, some kind of Linux prodigy?
arch is basic. It's just minimalise by default.
It has an amazing wiki, extremely active and helpful user forums, and an installer (i think now) or at least a massively helpfully customised shell for initial setup.
you can install arch and make it look like mint or whatever easily, then the only difference is pacman and the amazing AUR
It's not like he's compiling Linux from scratch on day one. Arch is pretty well supported and has a package manager.
Lol i hear this alot about arch users and as a newbie i dont get it. It has been the easiest for me to understand, maybe its the documentation idk i started with endavourOS as well which is a great beginner OS for arch IMO
EndeavourOS isn't pure arch. (I don't mean this in an elitist way. Use whatever is best for you.) Pure arch doesn't come with a desktop, so it sucks for new users.
I would agree but most people dont even know that a DE is different then an OS. I do plain arch now i was just saying it was a good starting point
EndeavorOS has been a great experience for me as well. Also KDE Plasma and now Wayland.
I started with an Arch-based distro and haven't looked back (EndeavorOS. Though I guess it's kind of like Arch easy mode). I have a family member that has been daily driving Linux for over a decade, so that was very helpful during the transition. But after a week or two, I haven't needed his help at all.
My laptop that previously ran Windows 11 is faster than ever.
