BTW I USE ARCH

LOL - I don't really use Arch, I only said that to troll some Linux geeks. In reality I wouldn't even be able to install Arch, and I actually use Mint. But geeks can be such plonkers sometimes, after looking at a bunch of Linux forums yesterday to solve some tech problems, I needed to post some memes today.

 

BTW I Use Arch is a catchphrase used to make fun of the type of person who feels superior because they use a more difficult Linux distribution. Memes about ArchLinux users being nerds have appeared online as early as 2011 and are likely inspired by troubleshooting posts by Arch users trying to maintain the OS. The memes became increasingly popularized on Linux-based subreddits around 2018.
