Why are a lot of Arch Linux users so toxic?

(I dont really know what flair should i put here, lol. Also i think i have a BIT of a broken english.)

Hello, as someone that has been using Linux for some time (since april of 2025 i want to think?) ive been noticing the inmaturity of the Arch Linux community, and how they think they are the superior ones.

If you are a newbie in the Linux community and you use something, lets say, Linux Mint, its okay, there is no problem in that, but if you even try to show "oh look i got linux!! im happy!" there is going to be like at least ONE person who says "use arch instead noob lol skill issue" i dont know my buddy, but there is something called shutting the fuck up.

But now, lets say you actually got Arch Linux installed, everything is fun until someone asks "How did you installed Arch?" then you said you used archinstall (which mind you thats the intended way to install it) they are gonna throw balls at you because you didnt install it manually, a manual arch install isnt hard but people want it simply bro.

But now, lets say that you got your manual install and you comply all the requirements that the "Arch Linux Fanboy Club" needs to satisfy themselves, but you got a problem, maybe its the audio, maybe its WiFi, maybe its something that can be a simple google search, but the person needs help from someone who knows, and when they get the help, they are not gonna even help, they are just gonna throw: RTFM, manual, arch wiki, read read read read READ, bro just help him alr 😭

You kiiiiinda get my point, Arch Linux is a fun distro nontheless, but the people who use it thinks that they are superior just because they have a "hard os" but put them to use Gentoo, or NixOS and you will have all of them shambling.

Take care and eat good. (?)

(sorry if errors, english not my first language)

Hello everyone! Today was officially my last day on Gentoo Linux, leaving it for Fedora Linux.

Gentoo was so fun, i loved every single time i could have, made a lot of rices for it, and had a real good time with it and liked the compiling side of it.

Sadly, that compile part is the thing that made me left me, it was a series of error that made me just, stop Gentoo.

Its not like i dont like Gentoo, but i just decided i couldnt be maintaining a distro like that anymore and had to go, sadly.

So where did i go?

I wanted something that i could be familiar with, something that would not bother me and a distro which i havent encountered problems before and i could be familiar with.

Thats where i remembered the distro that could fit that need, which was Fedora.

Never had problems with it, other than not remembering DNF commands, but i have never really found any problems with any of my Fedora installs, so right when im typing this, Fedora Linux is being installed on my Lenovo Thinkpad Yoga 11e, which used to have my Gentoo install.

Thanks to the Gentoo community for being so cool and great! Yall are such good guys and i hope you can have the fun i couldnt find in Gentoo.

Thank you!

So i skipped school today because i got sick (my bad should have done better) and so i went to my father's school since i had no other place to go lmfao, and today was like a kids party or sm shit like that, and there is a wall where the kids could write and draw on it (it was full of 67 obviously) so i just grabbed one of the crayons and drawed the thing.

Do i regret this? No.

Would i do this again? Obviously.
