I use Fedora 38, it’s stable, things just work, and the software is up-to-date.

So many nice things about Arch. I got into Linux with Ubuntu, switched to Debian for many years, and now use Arch.

Why Arch?

  • AUR provides a huge library of software that natively integrates into your system, including git versions of major components like kernel/mesa so you can test the latest features.
  • Rolling release means it’s always up-to-date and you don’t have to worry about version-hopping to the next version every release cycle.
  • Follows upstream projects closely

I installed all my Arch installations with the Calam Arch installer ISO. The one big complaint I see with Arch is the complicated install process, but with Calam installer it’s no different than most other distros.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
