Arch is easy to install (if you are comfortable with Linux, terminal and fucking up your partitions)

0. If you have Windows, a bit tiny work to correctly setup secure boot and UEFI

1. Create partitions manually, carefully. For best results I use seperate disks but windows installer still fucks up.

2. Mount and chroot

3. Install packages

4. Install a network manager

5. Reboot

6. Install a favorite login and desktop manager and if have any nvidia drivers

7. Reboot to ensure nvidia drivers load (F** you secureboot)

8. Install a nice font (sorry, yes)

9. Audio mostly works out of the box but if not install pulseaudio or something else.

10. Install yay or any AUR helper to install non-official packages in AUR.

11. Occasionally run pacman -Syu to update system to be not left behind a lot. There are no fixed releases like Ubuntu 22.04 or sth.

It looks complex, I know, but it's fun and there are literally every package with almost latest versions in Arch and if not, in AUR which helps a lot.
