Why are distro communities turning linux more and more into Windows and Mac OS clones?

This is why I use Arch.

'Till you figure out that, on Arch, if you missed/broke anything, you can boot into the Arch USB, mount your root into /mnt, and arch-chroot in to fix whatever is broken

Yup, a live image works in a pinch. IMO, just use BTRFS on root and install something like snapper to handle snapshots and you shouldn't need the live USB (unless you bork your bootloader somehow).

Be me, and bork BTRFS itself while trying to compile OpenMW from source
