Arch Linux at the end of 2022

Arch Linux is an independent Linux distribution and one of the more well known examples of the "keep it simple" (KIS) philosophy. In this case, "keep it simple" refers to simplicity from an engineering point of view. It refers to a technical simplicity rather than an uncluttered or an easy to use system from the user's point of view.

Arch is probably the world's most famous (or infamous) rolling release distribution. Its heavy focus on do-it-yourself computing, lack of a graphical system installer, and buyer beware attitude toward package upgrades has made running this project a rite of passage for many Linux users. People often talk about running Arch the same way they'd discuss earning a merit badge.
