One EASY TRICK to Feel Superior to Arch Linux Users!

Artix has all the advantages of Arch Linux, it also provides isos with pre-installed graphical environments, but importantly it does not systemd, allows users to dab on others in internet discussions. I installed it on my computer to do testing of LARBS, but it ended up being so seamless I kept it on, despite the fact that I am a confirmed soystemd shill who has defended it in the past.

It has OpenRC, runit and s6 versions (I use runit). You can install the base/minimal install just like how you'd do Arch with minor differences or install one of the many desktop environments: Cinnamon, XFCE, Plasma, LXDE, LXQT, etc.

The quintessential 'Arch user' doesn't use Arch, that's the point.

Talks about bash, uses zsh
Talks about systemd, uses artix
Says that he does not plan to use arch again, so I'm pretty sure that next week is the arch linux installation guide version 2020

Imagine creating a new distro just to change the init system (This post was made by Gentoo Gang)

Uuum Mr youtuber you forgot to review the wallpapers, what kind of distro review is this? Not upvoting sir, sorry.

>mfw luke tells me to install manjaro and a week later backsteps and tells me to install artix

[VikProstokvasha]

Btw every time when i forget Luke's channel name - i just search on youtube for arch boomer
Nothing personal just association.

"I don't use Arch" is the new "I use Arch"

>luke smith reviews "I can't believe it's not Arch!!"

Infected Mushroom is pretty good. They've been putting out diverse and interesting psytrance for decades now.

One of the reasons I moved to Arch was to learn Linux better for work. Most servers I interact with use systemd. So, it makes sense for me to use Arch so that I can learn about systemd. Someday though...

I run Kali on an vm on Qubes on a vm on Tails because I'm a cool, hacker, paranoid schizophrenic.

Install gentoo, that's how you can feel superior to an Arch user
- not a gentoo user BTW

The reason I like systemd is that the config files for its services are more or less *required* to be human-readable. Bash-style scripts aren't required to be human-readable, and can end up being confusing to write and maintain unless you've got an intimate familiarity with them, which is becoming less and less of a requirement. I do understand the hate that systemd gets for trying to do seemingly everything (even though there are arguments for some of the things it tries to do), and I'd really enjoy an init system that combines systemd-style human-readable service files with the "do one thing and do it right" mentality.

Nice, started tinkering with Artix last week in a VM along with freeBSD. Gotta say I really appreciate the BSD documentation. Arch wiki is extremely good for any Linux distro too but I have found myself reading the freeBSD handbook just for fun, it's amazing.

First time I've seen your channel. I'm starting to get into linux (how else am I going to justify buying old thinkpads I don't need) and aside from familiarizing myself with centos for my servers, and I think you've won me over to give this a shot. Your humor is on point too
you've earned yourself a sub, my man

[willpaxman]

I've been dual booting gentoo and artix OpenRC for about 6 months, and I'm glad artix is getting the recognition it deserves

GNU Guix System with the GNU Shepherd ftw. Embrace the Lisp machine.

The keyword here is 'Feel'.






I use Arch BTW

[ashishpatel]

Talk to me when you compile you're own kernel. - a person better than arch.

I really wish Parabola GNU/Linux-libre had a runit version.
