Checkmate, 2020 was that year for me! But now I still work to switch my friends over to Linux. Well, I’ve only done that successfully once, but every bit helps.

Arch is utterly inferior because of its use of the Systemd “init” system, which is a bloated mess that completely disregards the Unix philosophy of doing one thing and doing it well, and shouldn’t be forgotten for its sins and heresy. “Arch Linux” (Really Arch Gnu/Linux, or more preferably Arch Gnu+Linux (Unless you consider that Gnu runs on top of Linux, in which case it’s Linux+Gnu)) cannot be taken seriously as a minimal do it yourself distro when it hinges on an software that has ties with RedHat, which has had a history of forcing their woke Wayland Display Server (Even though Xorg worked just fine, suspicious much?), as well as their DEI onto the entire Linux space - where politics shouldn’t play any role. A WOKE company like RedHat has no place in the open source community. If you want to be a true and righteous Linux user, I recommend Either Void Linux+Gnu (What manly men like myself use) or Gentoo.

I will say the Ladybird leader Andreas Kling doesn’t have the best politics either, but it’s definitely preferable to Brave. I’m excited for Servo as well, since it’s finally been revived after getting dumped by Mozilla. It seems more technically interesting me too, beyond just being “another browser”. For the next year or two Zen Browser is going to remain my go-to, though.
