From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I watch a lot of his videos. But I didn't watch this one because I loathe and resent clickbait titles. I would imagine a fair number of people chose not to watch and down voted because of the clickbait title alone.

How would you title video where you talk about reasons why you've stopped using Arch?
