Why is it that top tier serious programmers prefer Arch Linux?

Memes.

bleeding edge, easiest to maintain

Real programmers use Windows because it just fucking works without having to spend hours fixing everything after a broken update

This. Funtoo is awesome, but Arch is easy street.

Pretty much this, actual programmers instead of bored NEETs which time worth nothing use win

>Why is it that top tier serious programmers prefer Arch Linux?
Doesn't Torvalds use Fedora (on Apple hardware)?

It's because top tier serious programmers are smart.

>programmers
You spelt vidyagaymares wrong.

>broken updates
>(You)

Wangblows lusers just spend hours waiting for windows updates to finish.
>Don't turn off you're computer

>Wangblows lusers just spend hours waiting for windows updates to finish.

That's what sleep is for. Nobody installs updates in the middle of the day and actually waits that shit out, they just let it run overnight and it'll be done by morning, just like the old days of queueing a bunch of shit in DC++ before bed and waking up to early christmas.

Nobody keeps their PC on over night.

what is a 'serious' programmer

i dont like windows or linux or mac infact i hate computers.

still i would prefer to use linux when its not like "oops theres a commit to this program that fucks everything just for you sorrry~~~" or windows when its not "dll error dll error dll error dll error re install program something fucked up dll error you need updates heres some upd-dll error boot your computer a few times until the usb works because we cant get our heads around it"

as for mac well, im too dumb to think differently like everybody else i guess.

Very old meme
He uses a VAIO Pro 11 before this, now he's using a Dell XPS

Also Arch Linux, as do most professional software developers and expert hackers.

Wait how? Programming is literally easier on Linux. Trying to do it on Windows makes me want to kill myself.

Well meme'd, but he uses fedora

Linux users can turn they're computers off to get up and pour a coffee.
Windows takes 45 minutes to be usable when you boot it up.

>expert hacker
>not using kali
>wut

Why is OP a massive cocksucking faggot?

Protip: this has a lot to do with using linux

lol, never met anyone who impressed me that used Windows. People that use Windows are the same kind of people who don't use Vim.

>Really bad programmers use Windows and settle for a shitty codemonkey life meanwhile real programmers use GNU/linux because it just fucking works without having to spend hours fixing everything after a broken update

Anyone who pertains to knowing anything about hackers but has no idea that Kali exists are retards who should be completely disregarded.

If you kids were ever employed you'd know, that 99,9% professionals use Windows on their workstations and Linux (mostly RHEL) on the terminal servers, which are used to do the actual work.
If you're autistic enough to believe anyone in development environment ever uses linux on their laptops you're unemployed for sure, and you should leave this board, since it's rated M for Mature.

Skiddies detected

Real 1337 hackers use windows with virtualization software for testing purposes

But I've watched Mr.Robot! I know everything there is to know about hacking.

Pretty much, every package is almost always the latest release version

Only pajeets use windows so they can use visual studio. GNU/Linux distros come with all the tools you need for programming and if it not, it's just one command away.

>as do most professional software developers
Wrong, you want a stable environment when you're doing critical work.
You mostly use bleeding-edge softwares for testing purposes.

>what is sleep instead of shut down

>nobody updates in the day

Except when its forced...
And for the meme
