(No provocation)
I see these reasons:
- newbie
- lazy (don’t wanna edit config files etc.)
- unique features (like assistant/toolbox, some optimizations like in cachyos)
- wanna check how different systems are set up (that’s rather distrohopping)
Personally, I used manjaro i3 when I was beigginer and wanted to see how tiling WM should be configured (check out ranger config, for example). But after some time, I don’t see reasons why not to just customize pure arch (same with debian and debian-based distros).


Pretty much sums up to being lazy and not wanting to fiddle with configs, we’re perfectly fine with KDE. Plus it’s a great way to familiar ourselves with since our so uses the same distros (Cachy)
Other (bigger reason) is that it’s a no fuss arch experience. Even get a little button to update everything for you, it’s pretty nice since we just need the thing to work cuz it’s also the save pc we use for work.
