one thing i’ve noticed since switching to linux, or before that to be honest, is that when someone says “which distro should i use” the universal reply is “any of them will work! just pick one!” but then when someone mentions which distro they’re using, there’s always 100% without fail someone who chimes in with “ewwwwww why?!?”
i’ve noticed that as well. arch users are to linux as gowron is to star trek memes. i haven’t tried arch or gentoo–honestly i don’t have the ambition i had when i was 12 trying to figure out how to run ultima 7 on my 386 “IBM compatible” CLI DOS machine
My kid installed Arch once upon a time. I was impressed and pleased with him, but also thinking that was way more work than I wanted to do to not use Windows. So I bought a Steam Deck.

Pretty much, haha. The amount of elitism among some Linux users is quite potent.
they take themselves very seriously
Just tell everyone you use arch, even if you don’t.

i think i’m getting it!
I mean, if you’re not using LFS, are you really using linux at all?

Unless it’s Arch, then everyone seems to agree it is the best Linux.
At which I will point out it’s the second linuxiest Linux. Real penguins use Gentoo
