    I did last night. Tried Fedora for a couple of days to just “diversify” my shit, but nope, the laptop kept waking up to a black screen every single time I opened the lid. Was like you know what fuck you, let me install Arch. It’s now running perfectly.

        Whoever says that is either just a hater/bitter or just never tried Arch. I DOES just work. I’ve had it on my desktop for a whole year now. I have never had to use timeshift to restore. I never had to spend all day to fix shit. It just worked this whole time. One thing that annoys me about it is the constant updates I get. Lol. But I just ignore them and do it once a week or so.

          Been using Arch mostly for 12 years here. It has always ran the best out of the box next to Ubuntu/Mint for me. And Arch seems to age even better than Ubuntu after a few releases break your shit.

            I maybe had a single Ubuntu release that worked out of 6. So it always lastet a year or so. Since Arch Linux, I never really needed to reinstall anything.
