That's why I use dual boot lmao.

That's why I use Fedora lmao

I was once a minimal arch user and it's awful because nothing ever just works. You've got to build everything yourself and it's a ton of work, and often breaks. Modern, user friendly distros like Fedora work great. Never have to fix anything

Are you sure you're not confusing arch with Gentoo? I use arch since 2011 and never had to compile anything by myself unless I wanted to use a program that's not in the repositories.

And since 7/8 years it works for me out of the box almost all the time.

Build as in set up all the systems and configs, not as in compile. Many nice-to-have features just aren't there if you don't configure them yourself.

I use Mint, BTW.
