That’s one of my gripes with Arch, too. It takes too much manual interaction on an everyday basis, it’s not a “set it and forget it” kind of system.

To some, sometimes lesser, extent it also translates to its derivatives, be it Endeavour, Garuda, Manjaro or whatever strikes one’s fancy.

There are normally only a few points at which traffic enters the country. Shutting them down will effectively cut you from most of the Internet, and the rest that remains will be fully in the jurisdiction that oppresses you.

Arch can be configured without archinstall in 20 minutes by a YouTube video even if you’re a grandma with 0 technical skills.

Let’s all stop pretending that having it manually installed means anything and just use whatever does it for us. Like, well, Endeavour.
