TLDR:
Windows 11 v24H2 and beyond will have Recall installed on every system. Attempting to remove Recall will now break some file explorer features such as tabs.

    Don’t tell people to stay away from Arch. It is not a god damned meme OS, hell even the Steam Deck production OS is built on Arch.

    It’s installer is as easy to use as the other shit you recommended if you can fucking read and follow directions, but skips the unnecessary installer UIs that hand-hold (which requires just as much reading and direction following, difference is the others have a toddler-appealing colorful UI).

    If old MAGA Boomers can handle text terminal DOS installs with floppy disks, a contepmorary dumbfuck Windows user will be fine too.

        What’s wrong with swearing?

        And full disclosure, I’m a member of the dumbfuck Windows user group to play my PC games in Steam.

          Nothing wrong with swearing in general, but you’re using it in a needlessly hostile way

          My point is that the arch community in general is very hostile to new and non technical users, I don’t think many would disagree

          Also, why still use a windows PC? Unless you play valorant, Fortnite etc proton is 99% there imo, haven’t had a windows machine in a year or so and I very rarely have any issues

          Profanity is meant for very strong negative emotion. Using it casually robs it of most of its value.

      I used Gentoo for gaming for 2 straight years. I’m not a complete newbie. I’m still not going to recommend Arch or Gentoo for anyone’s first distro.

      There’s a reason most distros come with a set of reasonable defaults. It’s so that you’re not left wondering “how the fuck do I get wifi working from the command line?” before you’re ready to tackle this issue.

      Most people also want their computers to just work. They don’t want to fiddle around with it to get it just right.
