Had to install Arch recently because it would help pad word count. Normally I wouldn't pick it because it takes so long to install for an experience that doesn't feel different enough to warrant that time. But I had to for uni so I thought people here might appreciate my attempt at making a pretty desktop. If anyone has tips with Gnome on here feel free to fire away aswell.
It's not Arch itself that's the skill. It's how it's configured and used for specific purposes that counts to the marks.
I definitely think that putting Arch or any Linux distro for that matter shows technical know-how and troubleshooting skills. Being familiar in bash and shell is a big bonus in a lot of roles as well.
