Why would you use anything other than Ubuntu and Debian in the first place?

aur is fucking great though. as long as you have good backups and you have the time to fix stuff when pacman fucks your shit up, there's really no reason not to.

AUR is the best. I run Fedora at work because the friend who got me the job took me aside before i started and told me
>I know the boss said you can install whatever OS you want
>but I swear to God
>if you use some weird ricer distro
>none of us will help you if your shit breaks
>also, if you install a weird ass WM
>none of us will help you
>period

So I installed fedora on my work computer because the rest of the team uses it. It's nice enough, but I die a little on the inside when I have to go through all kinds of hoops to install a niche tool on fedora and I see theres an AUR package for it.

I'm seriously considering dual booting, but I've become the one people go to when they have Linux problems. I don't want to be the guy who tells people, "Well, this wouldnt be a problem if you just used Arch. there's an AUR package for exactly this thing, dohohoho get rekt pleb"

Why are you still using deprecated OSes optimized for 10 year old processors?

the people having problems are not the people who actually use Arch, it honestly never gives me issues

Well yeah -- the only people who stick around with arch are the people who don't experience problems.
