Agree here, I don't understand why arch users would be the target of that comment.
I switched from Ubuntu, and I find the experience pretty similar, by and large. Nobody screams about Ubuntu users.
If anything, by stereotype, I would expect Arch users to be "do it yourselfers". They are the "5%" of users by choice, and they figure out a way to make it work. In contrast to the GGP comment who wants everything to "just work" for him even though he's chosen to break things.
Seems to me like they're exact opposites.
I also don't think the arch stereotype holds true, anymore. I haven't had to fix a broken system or do any manual-update stuff in the couple of years I've been running arch. I think it has much broader appeal at this point.
