Sauer posted:I use Arch with a plain old Openbox window manager on my cheap piece of crap Chromebook. It exist mostly to provide me the entertainment of fixing it when something breaks. Which is all the time. It also runs Vim pretty good I guess. Pacman is a nice package manager, but I wish they weren't so stingy with the repos its hooked up to. Bring AUR completely into the regular repository and add an "-FAUR" flag or something to Pacman that makes a big blinking red block of text pop up that says "If this doesn't work (And it won't) its your fault."

atomicthumbs posted:so what's the point of arch if it's awful and breaks i'm intentionally being whiny in the OP, because this is yospos, arch actually breaks less than so-called managed distributions (for me) the problem is they already know about the breakage, they just need a better way to warn people so they can make time before taking on a potential system breaking change "check the website every day" is a little archaic

if you don't want to use gnome 3 for whatever reason I'd say the next best thing is xfce not something like cinnamon ffs
