I should just go back to Debian and hope Launchpad PPA's don't break anything

Actually, that's not smart. I should use Ubuntu minimal instead
Asher Barnes
Ubuntu and Debian are both shit malware OS
Chase Cox
Should've went with Gentoo. Arch Linux is Systemd software anarchy.
Gabriel Martinez
Nice blogpost. Why don't you just do that instead of shitposting here?
Gabriel Sanders
The purpose of the post was to point out how overrated Arch is
Julian Butler
Nobody forces you to use Arch. Use whatever OS want. That's the nice thing about Linux. Aside from that I've yet to experience those problems you talk about (I don't see typing 'systemctl enable libvirtd' or whatever as a problem).

Sure, I'd go even further and suggest you go back to Windows. PKGBUILDs are essentially shell scripts, if those, and something like daemon management scare you because there's not a GUI straight out of the 90s that says "services" to guide you, you should not be using Linux.
Linux is only for smart people. Some people's brains are simply too slow to get advantage of a Unix/POSIX system.

Sounds like your retarded m8. Go back to Debian, learn a little bit more, and maybe try Arch again when you get some experience ;)
Luke Thompson
>Nice blogpost. You mean like every other fucking thread on this board right now?
Jack White
If I remember correctly Linux isn't posix compliant
Leo Watson
Arch is just babyBSD. Eventually you'll learn enough to graduate to freebsd
Nicholas Phillips
Not UNIX, but definitely POSIX.
Oliver Young
stick to debian don't add PPAs, compile things yourself, use backports or use precompiled packages located in your home directory if you install .deb packages make sure to clean up your sources.list or comment out the ones automatically added in sources.list.d
Tyler Garcia
smart people would not use something like the AUR

After a couple of years the joy of arch has been replaced by the anger.
Move onto gentoo OP. It's not that bad to install and compile times aren't really an issue. Portage is well worth it.
Brody Garcia
Gentoo takes hours to compile the damn thing, years if you want make into a usable system!
Wyatt Smith
No. Updates take like three minutes. You're just retarded.
Ryan Hernandez
What makes you go on the internet and tell lies?
Jayden Garcia
the only thing that takes a while to build is chromium
Levi Cruz
>Launchpad PPA's
lol that shit is full of packages made by fucking creeps running cross platform software using wine.
Ethan Lopez
gentoo users are retards, spending energy and time compiling each package to get the same performance, do you even read the source of packages?, I'm sure building an LFS is more productive that than shit.
Adam Morris
explain
Kayden Lee
>aur is great said no one ever
Gabriel Adams
Should I fall for the Arch meme? I like the idea of never having to upgrade my OS but whats the chance of some "bleeding edge" update killing my system?
Chase Cruz
1 in 10
Alexander Lewis
dude only lazy retardeds who doesn't know how shared libraries works or what a rolling release distribution means breaks their system, most of the stupids complaining about upgrade breaking their system is the ones that updates things like libc without the whole system and expect that works. To an experienced user installing basic arch system takes no more than 10 minutes, copy your backup config files, recreate your users and install other software, I don't see the big deal if it breaks.
Lucas Howard
less likely than updating anything through apt
Ian Mitchell
I'm sorry you're somehow incapable of doing other things while Gentoo compiles something
Juan Bennett
>I should just go back to Debian and hope Launchpad PPA's don't break anything Yes please or buy mac. You are to retarded to use Arch anyway.
Justin Sanchez
heh, got my system up and running in one sitting.
Carson Green
You're a pleb and will never know the joy of portage. Go back to your retard level OS while I shoot another load over my package.use
Evan Martin
Bullshit, I've been updating daily for like a year and a half and have never borked my system
Luis Evans
do you even know what an LFS is?
Dominic Martin
You don't see a lot of jobs requesting experience with Arch. A lot more want Ubuntu/Debian or Fedora/CentOS. Why waste your time on something you can't turn into money?
Benjamin Price
Little File System. Give me some credit. Wait? Large File Sytem? No... Linux File Sytem. Maybe. Actually Linux Fan Sound. That's gotta be it.
John Price
You gotta be retarded if you think LFS is more productive than Gentoo
Xavier Johnson
freebsd is literally no harder to use than anything else. It also has a handholding handbook that is about as retard friendly as the arch wiki.
Freebsd does have the benefit of running linux binaries slower than linux though, so theres that.
Also jails I guess, not that you even use them you fucking fat bastard.
Caleb Wilson
If you know how to use Arch, you know how to use Ubuntu too, you retard. Think before you shitpost.
Nathaniel Edwards
for learning purpouses it was for me, you learn to solve problems and how packages are glued, gentoo is stupid.
Grayson Perez
>mad because his shit os doesn't have jails
Ryder Morris
smart people would read a script before executing it
Angel Ross
>Debian >malware kek kill yourself
Isaiah Reed
Debian, Devian, Devil, Deviation,
Debian is for depravated people.
Christopher Nguyen
Gentoo
Noah Johnson
If I install gentoo with systemd, would that make you mad? I think I'd enjoy making you mad.
Charles Collins
It would be extremely irritating
Cooper Green
>Some people's brains are simply too slow to get advantage of a Unix/POSIX system. There is none. It even lacks features like thread-agnostic, non-blocking IO. Check out the PyParallel devs slides to know more about it.
Lincoln Price
You are a big guy.
Ryan Morris
It's on my to do list.
William Torres
>He complains about user-made packages, none of which are endorsed or even recommended at all by the actual distro Have you considered killing yourself?
debian spys on you to check if you have anti-sjw opinions
Chase Nelson
You forgot the shill, meme, waifu, cringe, nvidia/intel - amd, help me I'm retarded, etc. cancer.
