Hello guys and gals, it's me Mutahar again! This time I deleted and destroyed my system just to rebuild it from the ground up and to teach you how to install what many fedora-tippers call the "hardest system" known as Arch Linux. Check out the install guide here and have a great day! Thanks for watching!

Arch is pretty easy to install, it just takes a bit more work than most distros. Try LFS if you want something hard.

Said no Fedora user ever.

I, a Fedora, user switched away from Arch, but not bc it was the "hardest system", but bc I wanted something I don't have to babysit myself.

Speaking of "hardest system"... Arch is a toy compared to Gentoo or LFS. Give these two a try and then come back.

@adonis

He is talking about Gentoo and LFS (being harder) in the beginning phase of the video. And in general he does talk a lot meme talks and don't mean it literally. It's probably just a joke or a wink to a friend of him using Fedora.

Other than that I appreciate his take on the installation, explaining all the things along the way. And with the 3.5 million subscribers, I think it will reach and teach a lot users to Arch and Linux in general. His content isn't even Linux centric, that's why this tutorial on the main channel is a highlight to me.

I think it's a sign of a very niche mental illness that I keep laughing at Linux references in the wild.

Excuse me, sir... but your meme is severely outdated -- archinstall is a thi--

...I'm afraid my lack of capacity of pity against memers has failed me now.

I find this tone and style to be an instant turn off.
