    Arch is for advanced people

    I’d say mid… the Arch install process has got a lot simpler over the years and the wiki a lot better.

    If you can google duckle effectively, I reckon even a sharp-minded beginner could handle it.

      The thing with arch is that you have to know a lot of stuff. You have to take care of selinux yourself etc. If you know what you do, everything is fine. At the same time you can be on tumbleweed, kinoite or any other distro and install aur packages with distrobox. For me, there’s no reason to use arch. If you want to tinker with your system, go for arch.

      If you kind of know what you do as a beginner, you can go for it as well, steep learning curve but you’ll be more advanced than others in the same time.

        I haven’t actually touched selinux at all… It’s not ‘officially supported’ in Arch yet, although there are compatible packages available. I only recently discovered PAM which I have yet to learn too.
