I run Linux Mint right now. Should I switch to Arch?

Mint, being a fork of a fork of a fork, has multiple layers of miscommunications from it's original maintainers.
Thus, Mint is broken. In mysterious ways. In ways that no one knows how to fix.
Always use a mainline distro.
Debian, OpenSUSE, Arch, Gentoo, Slackware, Fedora. And the company. Only distros you should even consider running.
Daniel Martinez
What about Manjaro?
Jaxson Hernandez
Same thing.
Architect is the installer you want to use if you don't want to manually install arch. At least it doesn't implement anything of it's own.
Jacob Richardson
Anything wrong with current Crunchbang? Just installed it on my laptop.
Jack Morales
It's fucking dead.
distrowatch.com
>status: Discontinued
Jack James
If youre using an Ubuntu derivative you should be using Debian
Grayson Wright
>not installing gentoo in the current year
Ryder Morales
Is mint your first contact with linux ?
If it is sugest you to try manjaro on a VM
Gavin Edwards
More or less, I had Ubuntu for a long time literally knowing nothing about what I was doing. Now I decided to stay with linux forever and tried Mint, but I don't know if I'm convinced...
Cooper Thomas
Hey
There is a new version called Crunchbang++ And its sweet.
crunchbangplusplus.org
Elijah Martinez
So try manjaro it's an easy way in with the posibility to go balls deep if you want it
Christian Mitchell
There is literally nothing wrong with running RHEL.
Xavier Davis
>Crunchbang
is it 2013 again already?
Landon Reyes
Other than the fact that yum is a piece of shit in RHEL and every other distro based on it.

Between Mint not even being able to secure their own servers to them blocking security and kernel updates, fuck that shit and install Xubuntu.
Joshua Garcia
Adrian Sullivan
That's a big jump. Use Manjaro or Antergos before Arch
Evan Nelson
Antergos,Architect,Arch Anywhere,BBQLinux.Use any of them,just don't try to install Arch from scratch.If you're using Linux Mint,you're probably still too retarded to get it right and we don't wanna hear you a week later talking sit about how bad Arch sucks.
Aiden Wright
Installing Arch really isnt that hard with the help of the wiki.
Still pointless though.
Christopher Stewart
Why pointless?
Austin Wright
get a life ffs

>I run Linux Mint right now. Should I switch to Arch?
If you feel that you should do it because everyon on Sup Forums will think you have a small cock if you run mint then yes do it, but if you can bear the laughter then dont
Christian Walker
There is also other crew doing #! Called BunsenLabs the difference is that BL is a community where #!++ is one autist kinda Temple OS shit
Juan Edwards
Install gentoo
Jeremiah Morgan
There's its continuation called crunchbang ++ if you didn't know.

Mint is an improvement on Ubuntu, the Ubuntu community refuses to accept improvements or forks even though they are a fork because they are hypocrites and against the Linux philosophy of constantly improving by forking. The Ubuntu community are both open source fanatics and yet force their isolated brand of open source and shoot down anyone who would divert from or improve on how they do things

its not broken, its better than Ubuntu which is why Mint has a larger user base than Ubuntu
>In mysterious ways. In ways that no one knows how to fix.
Ubuntu/Mint incompatibilities could be fixed by accepting Mint as an official version of Ubuntu, the Mint community and its leader accept this, the Ubuntu community and its leader dont, gee, wonder whos at fault here?
