A lot of arch users are kids fucking with thinkpads ricing up their systems and putting anime wallppapers while not doing anything serious.
Ubuntu is commonly used by researchers and hardware developers who don’t really care about distro as long as it’s linux. The amount of times I saw people use the entire distro with default gnome skin just to launch a terminal to run their black hole simulation, the crypto cracker or some centrifuge control script… I myself am neither but ubuntu has been my go to as well since I usually don’t have time to screw with archinstall, so I just use ubuntu as good starting point and then tweak the internals as I go.
I feel like I’m the odd person out, using Arch like most people use Windows. I play games, do taxes, shop online, and do very minimal customizing, mostly just in KDE settings.
It’s a shockingly stable system for how “bleeding edge” it is.
No you’re supposed to rice the hell out of your Arch install, put an anime girl wallpaper, some form of neofetch replacement (RIP), and post screenshots about it while wearing programmer socks and loudly telling people how good arch is and how much their distro sucks.
Then complain about how you broke it and can’t fix it because you used archinstall thereby skipping the setup and recovery lessons, and didn’t read the wiki before updating.

Yeah same, and I only run updates like once every two weeks.
Wait, that’s not what you’re supposed to do?
