Why Arch Linux?

One significant pro is the AUR.

Mainly wanted to challenge myself to learn linux, the laptop wasn't my main driver, mainly just use it for prepping d&d sessions and some light gaming, so it wasn't a huge loss if I accidentally fucked it by doing something wrong.

The AUR is definitely a plus, and the community support is top notch. I've since swapped my main desktop to Garuda Arch and no real complaints with it for gaming other than stupid drm on MMOs. Only real gap for me is that libre/open office don't work 100% well with Microsoft office.
