Installing is just following directions. It's maintaining it after you Frankenstein the hell out of it that most new users struggle with

there is no proprietary AMD Linux driver
I mean, there is. It just isn't recommended for most users.
FYI: If you aren't aware, Arch has a CLI installer now that is very easy to use, should you ever want to give it a try (archinstall)
Endeavour is basically Arch with a more user friendly installer, a very small number of their own packages, and a coat of paint.
Manjaro is similar, except Manjaro runs their own repositories and delays packages for testing. This can lead to a whole bunch of issues when combined with the AUR. The team leading it has also been shown to be a little inept at times. I wouldn't personally recommend it.
The only downside is it can make web browsing and shopping a bit of a pain. But that’s my own fault for not taking 10 minutes to figure out how to set up split tunneling or just hosting qBittorrent on my media server…
Advice: Look up Gluetun and dockerize your torrent/vpn setup. Makes things real simple (including moving where it is hosted, should you choose to)
...What are you talking about?
If you want to take on archiving a huge library of media, more power to you. But that isn't a requirement. Many people use streaming downloads so that local storage is basically not required. Others download and set up services/plugins to delete episodes after they have been watched to ease storage requirements. Even if you want to keep all media, Raid is certainly a luxury, not necessity. Losing all of the media from a drive just means needing to download it all again.
And all of this is completely out of the argument of "feature parity" with Netflix. They drop shows and movies from their services all the time.
Ah yeah, fair enough.
@piotrkulpinski@lemmy.world you might want to look into disabling error reporting in production 👍
There's a submission link on the top of the page
Search seems broken. The following gives me a "Something went wrong" page
While I don't disagree with your sentiment, it seems like this list is just "self hosted open source alternatives". Even if there are better options, Gitea still falls under that definition, no?
