The great debate

Arch linux vs. Debian Sid (netinst)

>both have a "minimal" install
>both have many packages in their repo
>both are rolling release
>both have up to date repositories
>both are aimed for "expert" users who have to manually configure their system

Arch, because it (un)ironically more stable and more people use it. I guess only fraction of Debian users are on Sid.

why would I use an operating system that will break if I go a month without updating?

this. arch packages are basically appimages i.e. linux .exe's

>he ignored .pacnew warnings in the terminal

Why does it even have to give warnings though. Why doesn't it just werk?

arch: keep it simple (for the developers)

it's also a diy distro that you have to know how it works.
there's a tool for .pacnew merges: aur.archlinux.org/packages/etc-update/

hey guys, I'm just a new fag windows user lurking moar and seeking whore. it seems I came to the wrong place. goodbye

AUR your balls. thread/

Debian quality of packaging is out of Arch's league. Arch doern't even split their package correctly.

Arch is for wannabe power users.
Debian is for actual power users.

Allahu Akbar

I'm a Debian user, but their idea of minimal is fucking retarded.

Manjaro

and by that, i mean their tasksel groups.

>arch
>maintainers compile every feature and every kernel module available in every package
>minimal

Nice argument. Extremely technical.

This. Do not fall for the evil systemD meme level init people.

minimal install != minimal distro

This.

Their idea of minimal is either unusable "muh proprietary", or bloat out the ass. Nothing inbetween.

IBM Fedora minimal

>Which one and why?
Arch, because they're not code monkeys patching/breaking everything.

IDK what debian or archlinux is. I just fuck bitches. Don't have time for nerd shit. ubuntu? the fuck is that? sounds like this nigerian whore I stuffed at the bernie rally. anyways have fun with your os nerd chat. just pass over this obvious bait, since youre all a bunch of smart little fish in my pond.

nah bro, red pilled, ever head of spanish fly? totally redpilled right now

An example of this retarded behavior.
Gnome group has a hard dependency on either firefox or firefox-esr. I get that they want users to have a browser, but what the fuck is that nonsense?

that last comment was supposed to be a reply but as you can see I'm too chadded out to know how to post replies on the first try on an internet forum

>tfw it's no longer Redhat, but Bluehat Linux.

Why don’t you just install one part of those? It’ll install any dependencies alongside that one part

Debian sid uses unstable packages and is a broken mess. Not comparable.

No, this.

I don't understand them. They are so anti-proprietary, but if you want to use, for example IceWeasel (by Debian), you have to install Firefox, but that is somehow okay?

I'm all for free software, but this is borderline cognitive dissonance.

You have to go back.

What you mean?

NixOS > Slackware > Gentoo > openSUSE > Debian Stable > Arch

>openSUSE
Nigger, I'm way too old to learn dealing with patterns and vendor conflicts.

Arch, because it's designed to be used by end users, while Debian Sid is intended for developers.
Also, packages are tested for a day or two before going to Arch's stable branch, but there is absolutely 0 testing done before putting a package in Sid

Use Fedora, like a fucking adult you idiots.

Minimal fedora installed by carefully picking stuff from workstation?
