somebody gave you bad advice if you chose arch for your first distro
Yeah, Arch is not a great choice.
I would suggest PopOS! or Nobara.
Or just good ole reliable Debian.
I wonder if the Arch bros will ever realize they're doing more harm than good...
Obviously NixOS is the way to go for a gaming OS, just use the right flake and you're all set!

Nah, use Gentoo, you'll be hard-pressed to find something simpler.
How about https://www.linuxfromscratch.org/

I started using Linux when I was in high school. LFS has been my end goal, my Linux graal ever since. It's only been 23 years, I'll take care of it someday soon©.
I’m planning on making Linux from super scratch where I start with the kernel and write every other component myself. ETA: 9000000 years
Why include Linux bloat? Just write the kernel yourself!
I tried but it turns out writing device drivers it very very boring
Even simpler! Nothing to get between you and the kernel. :)
