Onion Posted August 2, 2017 Posted August 2, 2017 Arch for a beginner isn't the best idea. Things will break and the poor guy will be left with a non-functional OS and not enough knowledge to remedy it. It might be a great distro (and I agree) but it isn't suited in this case.

Wolfrider Posted August 2, 2017 Posted August 2, 2017 Maybe Antergos or Manjaro then? I didn't have a single crash with either of them, I used antergos for about 2 years on my laptop. Main benefit is the archwiki and AUR, now I can't be bothered to add custom repos manually anymore Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onion Posted August 2, 2017 Posted August 2, 2017 Manjaro is a pretty good one. This conversation reminds me of this old meme: 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfrider Posted August 2, 2017 Posted August 2, 2017 (edited) Wow you do have a point Arch was my third distro and I hated it at the beginning. Quite easy to forget all the headache, it thought me a lot about how my system works Never lost a .rc though, maybe that's fixed now Note to op: Try any main distro with gnome or kde, you can always change the de later Edited August 2, 2017 by Wolfrider Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
