Why People Are Crazy About Arch Linux? What’s so Special About it?
======
BTW, I use Arch!
You may have come across this term in Linux forums, discussion or in memes.
You might wonder why Arch Linux is so popular? Why people like it so much when there are easier to use, if not better, [Arch-based distributions][1] available.
In this article, I’ll list some of the reasons why Linux users like to use [Arch Linux][2].
### 6 reasons why people love to use Arch Linux
![][3]
Now, this is my perception. There is no set rule, of course, why you should be using Arch Linux. It’s what I have observed in my over a decade of experience with Linux users and communities.
Let’s see why Arch Linux is so popular.
#### 1\. The DIY approach gives you the control over every aspect of your operating system
I have always found Arch Linux as a DIY (Do It Yourself) operating system. From installing to managing, Arch Linux lets you handle everything.
You decide which desktop environment to use, which components and services to install. This granular control gives you a minimal operating system to build upon with elements of your choice.
If you are a DIY enthusiast, you’ll love Arch Linux.
#### 2\. Using Arch Linux gives you a better understanding of how Linux works
![Installing Arch Linux by creating partition and making filesystem via command line][4]
If you ever tried to install Arch Linux, you know the complexity that comes with it.
But that complexity also mean that you’ll be forced to learn things that you probably never bother to in other distributions.
For example, configuring network itself while installing Arch Linux is a good learning lesson.
If you start to get overwhelmed, [Arch Wiki][5] is there for you. It is the most extensive and awesome community-managed documentation on the internet. Just browsing through Arch Wiki will teach you plenty of things.
#### 3\. Rolling release gives you the latest kernel and software
![System update in Arch Linux][6]
Arch Linux is a rolling release distribution. That means new kernel and application versions are rolled out to you as soon as they are released.
While most other [Linux distributions serve you old Linux kernel versions][7], Arch is quick to provide you the latest kernel.
The same goes for software. If a software in the Arch repositories have a new version released, Arch users get the new versions before other users most of the time.
Everything is fresh and cutting edge in the rolling release model. You don’t have to upgrade operating system from one version to another. Just use the [pacman command][8] and you always have the latest version.
#### 4\. Arch User Repository aka AUR
![][9]
Arch Linux has plenty of software in its repository. The AUR extends the software offering of Arch Linux. You get a huge number of software with [AUR in Arch Linux][10].
AUR is the community driven approach to provide newer applications. You can search and install applications with the help of an [AUR helper][11] tool.
#### 5\. Sense of accomplishment
![][12]
As James Clear mentions in his book Atomic Habits, _**human brain loves a challenge, but only if it is within an optimal zone of difficulty**_.
Remember the feeling when you first installed any Linux distribution even if it was installing Linux Mint? That gave you a sense of achievement. You successfully installed Linux!
If you have been using Ubuntu or Fedora or other distribution for some time and you start to get comfortable (or bored), try installing Arch Linux.
For a moderately experienced Linux user, [successfully installing Arch Linux][13] itself gives a sense of accomplishment.
It is a challenge but an achievable one. If you suggest a new Linux user to try Arch Linux or even more complicated one like [Linux From Scratch][14], the challenge would be too difficult to achieve.
This sense of successfully completing a challenge is also one of the reasons why people use Arch Linux.
#### 6\. No corporate involvement! Arch is created, supported and owned by community
Ubuntu is backed by Canonical, Fedora is from Red Hat (part of IBM now) and openSUSE is from SUSE. All these major distributions are corporate backed.
This is not bad or crime in itself. But a few people do not like corporate involvement in open source projects.
Like Debian, Arch Linux is one of the rare few community-only Linux distribution projects.
You may point out that many other distributions like Linux Mint etc are also not sponsored by corporate. Well, that might be true but Linux Mint itself is based on Ubuntu and uses Ubuntu’s repositories. Arch Linux is not derivative of another distribution.
In that sense, [Debian][15] and Arch Linux are more pure community-driven projects. It may not matter to many people but a few people do care about such things.
#### According to you, why Arch Linux is so popular?
Now, you may not agree with all the points I made and that’s okay. I would like your views on why Arch Linux is so popular and has cult status among Linux users?
While you write the comments, let me share a BTW, I use Arch meme :)

为什么人们对Arch Linux如此着迷?它有什么特别之处?
======
顺便说一句(利益相关)，我用Arch Linux!
您或许已经在Linux论坛、朋友相互讨论或表情包里看到过这个术语。
你可能想知道为什么Arch Linux如此受欢迎?如果没有更好更易用的基于arch[1] 的发行版，那么为什么人们会如此喜欢它呢?
在本文中，我将列出Linux用户喜欢使用Arch Linux[2]的一些原因。
### 人们喜欢使用Arch Linux的6个原因
![][3]
以下6点只是我的看法，当然为什么你应该使用Arch Linux并没有固定的原因。以下6个方面只是我在十多年里与Linux用户和社区打交道的经验中观察到的。
让我们一起看看为什么Arch Linux如此受欢迎。
#### 1\. DIY方法可以让你掌控属于你的操作系统的每个方面
我一直认为Arch Linux是一个可以让你自己动手DIY的操作系统。从安装到管理Arch Linux放手让你处理一切。
你可以自己决定使用哪种桌面环境、安装哪些组件和服务。这种细小控制能够赋予你一个最小的操作系统，可以让你自由选择所需的组件来构建属于你自己的系统。
如果你是一个DIY爱好者，你会喜欢Arch Linux的。
#### 2\. 使用Arch Linux可以更好地理解Linux的工作原理
![Installing Arch Linux by creating partition and making filesystem via command line][4]
如果你曾经尝试过安装Arch Linux，你就会在安装过程中知道Linux的复杂性。
但这种复杂性同时也意味着你将被迫学习一些在其他发行版中可能永远不会费心学习的东西。
比如说在安装Arch Linux过程中配置网络本身就是一个很好的学习经验。
如果使用中你开始感到有困惑不懂的时候，Arch Linux 的 百科频道[5]可以帮助你。这个频道可以说是互联网上最广泛和最出色的社区管理文档。仅仅只是浏览Arch Linux的百科频道就可以学到很多东西。
#### 3\. 滚动发行可以为你持续提供最新的内核和软件
![System update in Arch Linux][6]
Arch Linux是一个滚动发行版，这意味着新的内核和应用程序版本一经发布就会向你推送。
当大多数其他[Linux发行版还在提供旧的Linux内核版本][7]时，Arch可以快速提供最新的内核。
而软件也是如此。如果Arch资源库中的软件发布了新版本，Arch用户通常会比其他用户先获得新版本。
在滚动发行模式下一切都是新鲜和前沿的。你不必把操作系统从一个版本升级到另一个版本，只要使用[pacman命令][8]你会始终保持最新的版本。
#### 4\. Arch用户资源库 也就是熟知的 AUR
![][9]
Arch Linux在它的资源库中有大量的软件。AUR扩展了Arch Linux的软件供应。你得到在[Arch Linux的AUR][10]中找到相当多的软件。
AUR是社区驱动的方法，用于提供更新的应用程序。您可以在[AUR辅助工具][11]的帮助下搜索和安装应用程序。
#### 5\. 成就感
![][12]
正如James Clear在他的书《原子习惯》中提到的那样, _**人类的大脑喜欢挑战，但只有当它是在一个最理想的困难区域**_.
即便你成功安装完成的是Linux Mint，还记得你第一次安装成功Linux时的感觉吗?这给了你一种成就感。您成功安装了Linux!
如果你已经使用Ubuntu、Fedora或其他发行版一段时间了，现在开始感到舒适(或厌倦)，你可以尝试安装一下Arch Linux。
对于一个有一定经验的Linux用户来说，[成功安装Arch Linux][13]本身就会给你一种成就感。
这是一个挑战，但也是可以实现的。如果你建议一个新的Linux用户尝试Arch Linux或者更复杂的Linux发行版比如 [Linux From Scratch][14]，这个挑战将会很难实现。
这种成功完成挑战的感觉也是人们使用Arch Linux的原因之一。
#### 6\. 没有企业的参与!Arch是由社区创建、支持和拥有的
Ubuntu由Canonical支持，Fedora来自Red Hat(现在是IBM的一部分)，openSUSE来自SUSE。所有这些主流发行版都得到了企业的支持。
这本身并不是坏事或罪行,但是有一些人不喜欢企业参与开源项目。
正如Debian一样，Arch Linux是为数不多的仅由社区参与的Linux发行项目之一。
你可能会指出许多其他发行版如Linux Mint等不是由企业赞助的。好吧，这可能是真的，但Linux Mint本身就是基于Ubuntu并且使用Ubuntu的资源库。Arch Linux不是其他发行版的衍生物。
从这个意义上说，[Debian][15]和Arch Linux是更纯粹的社区驱动项目。这对很多人来说可能无关紧要，但确实有一些人在意这些事情。
#### 对你来说，为什么Arch Linux如此受欢迎?
现在你可能不同意我提出的所有观点，那没关系。我想知道你是怎么看待Arch Linux在Linux用户中如此受欢迎，并具有崇拜的地位?
当你写评论时，让我分享一下“我用Arch”的表情包:)
