>I don't mean disrespect towards people running Alpine (hi), Arch, or Gentoo, but you wouldn't be running these distros if you aren't ready to handle their quirks.

You'd think so, but you'd be surprised how many gamers switching from Windows to Linux get recommended Arch and Manjaro

I see Bazzite recommended more than Arch these days, but Arch is confusingly a very popular choice.

I wonder if Arch being the basis for SteamOS is responsible.
