Will I survive the Linux CLI if I only switch because I'm a student and Arch distro speed? (lemmy.world)

I'm not a computer expert or planning to be. I'm just a computer user, a coder, a gamer, and I think I will get the opportunity to afford cheaper PCs if I use the Arch distro from Linux which is very lightweight and fast. I've heard Microsoft forces you to bloat your PC with win11.

Arch is not a distro for beginners. One day you'll wreck it.

If you just want it to work, I would advise you try these and stick with the one you like the most:

  • Mint (Cinnamon)
  • Zorin (Gnome)
  • Fedora Workstation
  • Fedora KDE Plasma
  • Ubuntu Desktop (Gnome)
  • Kubuntu (KDE)
  • Aurora (Gnome)
  • Bluefin (KDE)
  • Bazzite (KDE & Gnome)

All my family's PCs run linux. We use Bazzite for gaming and Aurora for work. Easier and more reliable than Windows.
