The problem I ran into with Arch was that it forced you to make many decisions about your system up-front, before you had a system to begin with. I even found Gentoo easier to set up, and Gentoo forced me to pick which version of cron I wanted to install. One nice thing about Arch though is the ArchWiki: it has copious amounts of documentation on software that is usually applicable to other distros. A good example is https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Awesome https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Awesome
