The community has become quite aggressive and elitist lately, they now remind me of the days of gentoo.

- swasheck 15y agoProbably because of comments like what astrodust is spraying everywhere.
- Avshalom 15y agoThat's a shame, back when I installed it years ago (05ish I think) the community was one of my favorite things about the distro.
- ColdAsIce 15y agoYeah I remember it back in the beginnings, it was quite friendly. Now I see people get yelled at in #archlinux for having an opinion on x vs y which is opposite of what the majority of #archlinuxers think. The forums are like "not my problem fix it noob, here is half a wiki page"
- lclarkmichalek 15y agoI've never had a good experience with #archlinux, and the forums are generally quite slow. I do recommend the arch-general mailing list however.
- xentac 15y agoYou should have seen the community 7+ years ago! They've done a lot to make the community more friendly and inclusive.
- cenuij 15y agoI agree somewhat, but I tend to find that it's newbies who have managed to migrate away from MyFirstLinux™ that make all the annoying noise coming from the Arch community; so perhaps it's not fair to judge Arch users as a whole. On the other hand, at this rate http://funroll-loops.info/ http://funroll-loops.info/ will need to be re-written for Arch ;)
