However, most of the responses that mentioned Arch Linux didn’t provide a reason.
I suspect more people hate “Arch stans” than the Arch distro.
i HATE most Arch users. So, yeah, I agree.
You get to remove one distro from the face of the earth, as if it had never been created. All distro’s based on it will also be removed. What do you choose to get rid of?
Arch linux, so people stop saying “i use arch btw”
and oh right, i use arch btw
Seems that the Reddit community has a different opinion than the rest of the outside world.
I think the entire tech/programming community has some really destructive ideas at it’s core. The freedom/libre thing is great, but almost every UI/Distro decision they stick with is completely opposite of what normal people want.
Calling Manjaro bloated is a bit unfair because one of their goals is to provide a good out-of-the-box experience for beginners.
I call the entire list bollocks because the reasons why the distros are not good are more than questionable. You do not abandon or avoid a Distro just because there are 1 or 2 things you do not like, you always can change stuff on your own and tweak it as you go with it. You will also never find something that is perfect unless you create it on your own and with your own opinion of what is good.
I get the hate for Ubuntu, but the counter of Arch annoys me to no end.
Ubuntu is widely used for a reason, Arch is niche for a reason. You don’t see Void or Debian users like me jerking about distros. We find what works for us and use it for whatever we need
I can’t disagree more with this list lol.
Same
This list sorta makes sense. The more popular you are, the more haters you’re likely to have.
Can’t say I agree with much of this list, but I can see where it comes from /shrug
Its like that joke about programming languages:
There are two types of programming languages, ones that people complain about, and ones that nobody uses.
Yeah exactly :P
Also, a lot of people just really like to hate whatever is popular.
I dunno what I’d pick for linux distros but
systemd could be a bad development possibly that could be removed
I was expecting some actual worst distros on this list, but I’m guessing the respondents have never tried any of those and simply just tried a handful of the very best distros, and then claimed the one they liked least was the “worst” distro.
Hilariously, after years and years of distro hopping, I found myself back on Ubuntu recently.
Just delete little unsupported distros to improve the better ones. Ubuntu still have a sense to exists like all the big distributions.
