Asked By TechLover93 On

Hey everyone! I'm really frustrated with Windows, especially with the end of life for Windows 10 coming up. I've decided to jump into Linux and I've already downloaded an Arch ISO and made a bootable USB. My question is: do you think Arch Linux is suitable for beginners, or should I start with something else before diving into Arch? I'm willing to learn, but I'd like some guidance!

Plus, just so you know, I tried running Arch in the Windows Subsystem for Linux recently, and even that was a bit tricky! Make sure you're up for the challenge if you decide to go that route.

Check out the migration tips on the wiki! There's a lot of useful info specifically for beginners looking to switch to Linux. Remember, Arch is great, but it's all about learning it deeply, so it's better to start with something more straightforward to build your foundation first.

If you're questioning whether Arch is suitable for you, it might be a sign to explore other distros first. Arch requires a bit more legwork to set up and understand, so maybe consider a more beginner-friendly option to learn the basics before tackling Arch.

Honestly, there's so much to learn in Linux, so I recommend starting with something easier to get comfortable with the core concepts. Once you've got those down, you can dive into Arch and work on it at your own pace.
