b3b340657yWhy its special for me:
- its small
- its not bloated by default
- you can configure it as you wish without breaking the whole system
- it has a huge wiki (wiki.archlinux.org)
- its package manager (pacman) is really nice, it has most packages you need and if not, they're in the user repo
Only my opinion -
olback107947yI agree with @b3b3, I don't run Arch because I'm too noob to set it up I guess. I do use Antergos which is Arch based and I live.

It's like veganism for devs.
No matter what the conversation topic is, they will tell you that they are using Arch Linux. ðĪŠ -
From a nihilistic point of view, nothing really. All distros are equally powerful.

Danacus2377yIt's like building your own desktop by buying all the components you like and assembling it yourself instead of buying a computer from a manufacturer.
What's so special about Arch Linux?
