    EOS provides some more QoL features, it’s not just the installation itself (a button to update mirrors, auto keyring update, some nice pre-installed things like yay, etc)

    If you need an Arch installation ready to go out of the box, EOS is a solid choice.

      Yeah, that’s cool. For me, the beauty of Arch is how naked it is when I install it. It’s like “least priveleges” but for my workstation. I only add the crap I want. No more, no less.

      I cut my teeth on FreeBSD 2.2.1 way back in '97 or whenever the hell that came out. Arch feels like coming home to me in a strange way, even though BSD is still solid. Linux is a much better workstation that BSD these days.
