   So is anyone using Arch Linux and can you convince me why I should even bother?   
      
   I decided to try with Arch and it's...painful.  I know they want to be "Linux   
   from the ground up" but even basic things like setting up your network and   
   basic stuff is painful.  Needlessly painful.   
      
   I am a fan of FreeBSD and I feel like they are trying to do what FreeBSD   
   does...only wrong.  Painful.   FreeBSD can get you going from the ground up   
   with minimal effort and pain.  The FreeBSD guide is great.  The Arch Wiki?    
   Not so good.  Bootstrapping Linux is not "fun" and the worst parts should be   
   automated with a simple script.  Getting all the way through, rebooting and   
   finding there is no networking..that's bullshit.  Networking should be part of   
   the base install full stop.  It's 2020 after all.   
      
   Convince me otherwise.  Like Gentoo, I've gotten part way through this and   
   realized "why the fuck am I doing this?"   
   The AHK Gang! Live on Riot.im.   When we feel like it.
