True, i daily drived arch for 8 years and argued with one who advised arch to windows refugees, some people seriously think that arch is good for people who haven't used true Linux not one bit in their lives

This shit is what kept me from making the jump for a long time, the hardcores just don't know how hardcore they are and think the average person can just pick something like that up in an afternoon.

These who don't know how hardcore they are, don't touch grass, in short they are basement dwellers that residing in online echo chambers, i mean, i was daily driving arch for 8 years and i know i was hardcore one because i am going to university and working on a job, i mean i am seeing people and comparing myself to them, and those who seriously thinking that everyone can pick up linux in an afternoon, these people not having enough socialisation that's for sure
