Arch is a pain to setup BTW. It's worth it, though you'd be better using something like the installer for cachyOS to get the same experience

It's absolutely not. Use archinstall. The hardest part is preparing for breakages when you update.
Honestly, I've done it so often, it runs automatically. The config stuff I have for years and years, I think I haven't change shit for ever. Runs.

I know a guy who looks like that.
He's good at JavaScript.
I'm going to use Debian btw Edit: nvm wifi not working, NixOS it is
Meanwhile still compiling Gentoo.
Just kidding, already done.
Seem like im one of the few who went from Arch to Fedora
You aren't the only one! Living on the bleeding edge did have its benefits, but I'll take the reliability of Fedora over dealing with random Arch issues any day (it helps that Fedora still keeps its packages very up to date so you don't miss much). Arch did teach me a lot so I still appreciate it, and they do have the best wiki!
For anyone interested, those are stickers from there: https://www.stickermule.com/unixstickers and they cost 1$ with free shipping.
Great to show Linux swag.

I'm happy to say "i use arch btw" (actually CachyOS but without most of the weird cachyos-stuff but still using their v3 repositories) for about two weeks now. It's pretty great so far, no breakages or anything, feels very responsive and updates are much quicker to do, too, because pacman works really fast.
Alongside with Debian Sid and flakified NixOS of course...
