Windows bad, in the next few days I think I will be replacing it on my laptop.
The question is, do I throw myself into the deep end with arch or avoid stressing myself out and go with something easier.
@Chizu Who's trying to trick you and why would you not know what that is? It's a good Linux distribution.
@miria I can't find any of the software I actually need on there, as everyone seems to say it is void of support.
@Chizu Everyone seems to say a lot of false things. The Void repos have more packages than the Arch repos.
@miria I did try to manually find things like my vpn client etc and I wasn't able to find it.
I am still kinda considering fedora because I know other people with my laptop are using it and make software specifically for it to control the abnormal things.
@miria mullvad, it seems I could use it through the ovpn and wireguard apps directly but that isn't what I want to do.
@Chizu All that link does is clone the Github repo and compile it from source. You can do that on any distro.
@Chizu Yeah but that doesn't mean Arch has Mullvad and some other distro doesn't. An AUR PKGBUILD is just a bash script. You can run that on any distro.
@miria if it makes my life easier and means I can avoid the command line more I am all for it
@Chizu >avoid the command line
>Arch
Uh... yeah maybe stick to Debian. Or if you *really* want to use Arch, try Manjaro instead.
@miria I like to avoid it because I am not used to it, so I kinda need a reason to use it.

@Chizu @miria @EnjuAihara CLI is not too bad if you know to use it and fix mistakes
