I very much like the idea of Arch and have installed FreeBSD and Slackware and OpenBSD in the past. I'm not remotely afrit of a terminal. I do find all of the farting about with stuff that I know how to do but haven't done for ages a collosal rigamarole. I'm not at the Ubunto, or 'get a Mac', Fedora stage of not wanting to muck around (there is nothing wrong with Macs or Ubuntu or Fedora - they are acceptable options, but I prefer Manjaro for ease of use/flexibility because familiarity rather than brand loyalty). But that amount of routine, scriptable, tedious, configuration in Arch only makes sense in a *minority* of cases before the base is installed. They need a user survey. I with there were a jaded (done this too often/don't want to fiddle too much) and student/grey beard mode. OpenBSD do it better IMHO. Going to catch the Daystar and eat before considering what to do. Which will probably involve Arch and an unecessarily fiddly evening. Windows 11 Pro basically feels like a Linux distro that doesn't natively run Linux apps.
