Ubuntu has caused me far more headaches and downtime than Arch. Go figure.
And to make this be a worthwhile comment: I wonder if it is because I use Arch (and derivatives) that Ubuntu causes issues. When something isn't right, I try and fix it. In Arch I can. In Ubuntu it seems like a dozen paper cuts to get there and it may not work in the long run anyway. Oh the Snap doesnt have foo compiled in? No problem I can add it to the snap directory. No, that didnt work. Ok I will remove it and bring in a .deb file. Dependencies not met. Fine, I will compile it from source..... and by that time I have wasted a TON of time.
Worth noting, this meme is from the time before Arch had an easy installer. So that's probably what it's referring to. I joined Linux almost 4 years ago, and this meme already existed then. I dunno how old it really is.
