<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>I’m a long time Windows user. I’ve been using the OS since the days of Windows XP, and I honestly never really gave Linux a second thought. I was getting disappointed with newer Windows releases, they’ve been getting more bloated and there’s been a ton of UI inconsistency with Windows 11. So I thought, why not try Linux? I had considered trying it once before, but that was before Proton allowed me to play my Windows games with the same performance. My previous Linux experience was just using Ubuntu 14.04 on a computer at a public library, so I didn’t exactly know a lot. At first I was going to install Ubuntu, because I heard it was a good distro for beginners. But while I was doing my research, I came across this thing called “Arch” that could supposedly be configured exactly to the user’s liking, but was only recommended for more advanced users. I thought what the hell, I’m gonna give it a shot! So I booted up a live USB on a secondary laptop, opened the wiki on my desktop and started the process. The hardest part of the install was honestly partitioning the drive, but once I figured out stuff like where to mount the EFI partition it was pretty straightforward. Fast forward to today, I’ve been using Arch for three weeks without any problems! I installed GNOME and the newest NVIDIA drivers, got my entire steam library running with Proton and even installed the Zen kernel! I do a weekly pacman -Syu and everything is running super smoothly.</p> <p>TL;DR I installed Arch as my first Linux distro and honestly found it super simple. Is that weird? xD</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> &#32; submitted by &#32; <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/Relevant_Dog_6115"> /u/Relevant_Dog_6115 </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/archlinux/comments/r5yilr/is_it_weird_that_i_found_arch_super_easy_to_set/">[link]</a></span> &#32; <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/archlinux/comments/r5yilr/is_it_weird_that_i_found_arch_super_easy_to_set/">[comments]</a></span>
