Had the same journey. Thats the thing though, once you start with custom ppas and packages arch becomes much better. Today, users should largely pull in newer programs through snaps/appimage/flatpak, so I think it’s gotten better than it used to be.

Holy shit that’s annoying. Say I installed Win11 for my elderly parents. They’d get this sign-up screen after I would have thought everything was setup and ready to use.
Glad I installed elementary OS for them a few years ago, it’s been completely painless (they are used to apple-UX)
I’ve packaged on both distros, and PKGBUILDs are truly amazing
Got this update message in signal earlier this week. Nice to see them moving in the right direction, but I guess the initial signup still requires a phone number.
"Your phone number will no longer be visible to anyone on the latest version of Signal unless they have it saved in their phone’s contacts. You can change this in Settings.
A new privacy setting lets you control who can find you by your phone number on Signal.
You can now set and share an optional username to let people chat with you without giving them your phone number. "
Deus ex: revision is pretty good too. Changes a bit more than GMDX compared to the original though (e.g., more map changes, some new soundtracks)
I use arch on a proxmox lxc in order to handle apps which does not have a debian repo. Using AUR saves me from manually recompiling/downloading on new releases. Wouldn’t use it for a server at work though.
Using torguard. Works well
Arch does have a testing repo though
