This is due + to the fact that I am able to customise it to be whatever I want, and I know what is + on my computer instead of It grows bloated over time, like windows. While I have had + some trouble in the past with Arch, where all my faults and all of the problems I had + were easily fixed. Overall, I just like having full control over my computer and making + it look nice.</p> + + <hr> + <h3>Pros</h3> + <p>Arch Linux is very custimizable. Linux distro: no two Arch Linux systems are alike because + you have to tailor your arch Linux to your needs, this means you have more space on your + computer because you don't have programmes you do not use. There is a large catalogue of + programmes in the official Arch Linux repository, and there is also even more in the + AUR (Arch user repository)</p> + + <p>If you are ever facing an issue with Arch Linux, there is more likely than not documentation + on your problem, an example of this happening to me was when I updated my packages, it told me I + had missing firmware, which I thought was odd, so I looked it up, and it turns out I needed to install + a few packages.</p> + + <p>Arch Linux has a rolling release model, meaning you get all the fancy new software as + soon as it has been approved to be working. You do get updates daily, but I suggest updating + your computer every week.</p> + <hr> + <h3>Cons</h3> + <p>This con is subjective, but Arch Linux has a steep learning curve. At the start, things are + hard, and You are very confused, but over time, you learn more and more. But if you enjoy + learning how to use I would suggest Arch because I have learned so much from it.</p> + + <p>Arch is not the most beginner-friendly distro, and when I started using Arch, I thought + I knew how to use Linux through the command line pretty well, but I was proven so wrong, + so fast, there were lots of failed when I started with arch, but I learned and tried again + and looked at sources, while it is not the most beginner-friendly, you need to dive yourself + into the deep and try if you want to get anywhere in Arch Linux.</p> + <hr> + <h3>Who would I suggest Arch to?</h3> + <p>I would suggest Arch Linux to somebody who is willing to learn and wants more power over their + computer's software<br><br> + + Arch Linux website link: <a href=https://archlinux.org>archlinux.org</a> + + Tip on installing: I suggest you watch SOG's instillation guide and follow along the first time + you Install it; I did, and it went well. After that, you can develop your own method.

I suggest you look for second-hand ThinkPad; they are very durable and + are recommended for There are amazing keyboards, and I can back that up. If you look hard enough, + you will find one that is Pretty cheep. I got my ThinkPad for £40 ($50), and it has an I5 in it. + I use it more than my PC, so I would say it was worth every penny that I paid for it.</p> + + <h3>Software</h3> + <p>This week's hardware suggestion I have for you is that if you are looking for a spare laptop to + <p>I suggest you learn how to use VIM. It is free and easy to learn the basics of, but it gives + you a lot of power. I suggest it, especially if you want to learn or are learning programming + due to the fact that it is really efficient for programming, I use it for programming and typing + up. these newsletters. </p> + <hr> + <h3>Conclusion</h3> + <p>That is all for this week. I will post these on Fridays from now on; I only posted this today. + because I have been given permission to actually do this, and I am grateful. But if you read + all of this, thank you; it does mean a lot to me!</p> + </main> + </body> +</html> + |
