Because it's well documented, well maintained and has amazing repositories between the AUR and the regular repositories. Let me tell you a story:

>Set out to test CentOS as a possible OS to use on AWS
>Install CentOS 7 minimal on a KVM/QEMU virtual machine
>Oh fuck, no internet
>Find unhelpful wiki page that tells me to end some config to enable the device
>Try to edit config
>nano not found, vim not found
>Oh, vim is called vi even though it isn't...
>Get the internet working by enabling some settings
>Install git and download my server application
>Actually goes okay
>Try to install cmake and gcc to compile it
>Oops gcc doesn't come with C++, install that separately
>Oops it still doesn't come with C++14, install that separately (or something, never solved this problem)
>Try to install the dependencies for the project
>No AUR, have to get them from Github
>Install Boost
>Try to compile project
>Oops boost doesn't come with headers, those are in boost-dev to save space or some stupid nonsense
>Manage to compile project
>Install PostgreSQL
>Most commands are inexplicably missing
>Can't find any documentation
>Discover that the PostgreSQL in the main repositories is the wrong one
>Need to add some other repository using the other package manager (there seemed to be two) and an enormous URL and download from there
>At this point I said fuck this and made an Arch VM instead

Compared to that, Arch just werks. Everything is in the main repos or the AUR, the stuff in the main repos is actually complete and usable, as well as being well documented.

jealous of your orderly image folder
>>
>>57495240
tfw I tried to do that but went too far, too deep, categorizing every little thing so much I couldn't actually find anything without going into 4 or 5 folders because of things crossing categories.

I just deleted all my images in the end.

The AUR, the AUR is life, the AUR is god.

In any other distro, if you don't find a program you need in the repos you would have to build it from source, lurk to have all the dependencies and hope everything goes well.

In Arch everything is in the AUR, if it's not in the AUR it doesn't exist.

Arch rule #1, if it doesnt exist in the aur, it doesnt exist.

If anything Solus is the superior linux distro.

>>57493784
It's rolling release.
>>
>>57495640
Now can you share it?
>>
>>57493784
It isn't superior. It does come with very little cruft, and this is the only reason I can think of to use it.
