Yes

There are better ways than using Lutris

• Try with Bottles
• add Battle.Net as a non-steam game

Probably not the purpose of this distro but using snaps in this way are a massive benefit for embedded systems

99% of people don’t understand anything about Snaps except from thinking they’re worse than Flatpak

I used to use ~/devbut for years now I use ~/Workspace becaue Eclipse made me do it

But what about Only Office?

Etcher is not recommend anymore because it’s adware and there are better free alternative like Impression

I could care less

In my experience the AUR is useful but almost unnecessary, and if you want to use flatpak you can get away from using the AUR entirely

Who gives a shit!?

Yeah totally, I think to use Arch successfully you need an opinion about what your system needs, and that takes experience with using Linux.

Installation is pretty trivial these days with the install script

Ironically this is how I feel about Arch, for me it’s worked flawlessly for years.

I don’t bother getting in ‘discussions’ about using it, because if other people have problems I’m not going to convince them that I don’t.

Very straightforward.

It is a unmodified Arch install that has a prepackaged setup, so you get a running desktop very easily and get the full.power and configurability of Arch

Write with what you know

In time, I’ve come to realise that people that complain about snaps are not worth listening to.

99% of the complainers of snaps don’t understand their full use case, they are an invaluable resource for servers and embedded systems, snaps support features that flatpak never will do.

Show don’t tell

I mean… They’re not. Not counting the individual or course.

Well said, although I do think Gnome is for everyone, they’re just being stubborn 😜

Well I think that’s the issue here. It’s not geared towards a group of people, but towards an ideal workflow which is the Gnome Way.

If you’re someone that likes to have masses of applications or windows open you can certainly use Gnome, but the Gnome is more focused on one or two windows per desktop/workspace and I encourage you to embrace that way of working too

Again, it’s not about people, but the intended user experience.

I remember when Windows first introduced My Documents folder and subfolders for images, music, video. To begin with I rejected this folder because I wanted my folders in the root C: as I had always done. Eventually I decided to use these folders and I learned to appreciate the convenience of this, including all the additional thumbnails and meta data that the OS provided automatically for those folders.
