I would like this comic done by an arch user.

I want to see Debain users and Fedora users faces when they noticd they don't have access the AUR or PKGBUILDs.

I want to see them running sudo make install to install stuff from git.

Also reading the Arch wiki for so long is something new arch users probably do. I installed arch for tens of times btw and for me the system already runs with the installation media.

I am very sure no Debian or Fedora user is done after the installer finishes. Then comes the tricky part of the setup. The one that takes days. Adding ppas and making stuff work fedora doesn't package.

This process starts with arch right away. From the moment i chroot into my installation.

I actively maintain ~9 computers in my house running arch. Many of them have dual boot arch. E.g. one arch for work, one arch for everything else. One arch for music production, one arch for everything rlse. I run arch on my webserver. I run arch on my home sevrer. I run arch on my wifes gaming desktop. I run arch on my wifes laptop. I run arch on my kids netbook. i run arch on rasberry pi.

btw.

I am always a bit disapointed when I install debian every couple of years.

Like, after 1.5 hours, I am like "what, that was all?" Most of the stuff I need is installed by default, just add Jetbrains toolbox, install my ide, add a few more packages and git clone my current project.

Edit: autocorrect changed git to it
