I’ve never seen anyone being smug about their distro, but I’ve also never seen a comment where somebody have said they use Ubuntu. Arch on the other hand is everywhere, meme or no meme.
Genuinely, I have only seen mentioning of Arch as the distro they use because they mentioned something arch-specific (e.g pacman) or its actually important to make a distinction (package name), and usually they anticipate the meme anyways because its the butt of the joke now. For me at least it isnt hard to find an equivalent ubuntu/fedora/suse comment, and I think its fine! But why are we fighting this ghost of “Arch is only for edgy guys that want to break their system and be smug about it on the Internet”?
Could also be im tired of seeing this meme everyday now… Linux has a lot more jokes than this guys… Just dig Linus Torvalds’ mailing list for some ideas
