Pros
Pro Lightweight
Only the software you would need like Terminal emulator, file manager, media player and a browser.
Pro Flexibility
You can have a functional system in less than 10 mins using GUI installer OR you can do it "the Arch way".
Pro Runit
Artix actively supports the runit init system known from Void Linux (equally besides the OpenRC init system known from Gentoo).
Pro Close to bare Arch Linux
No learning curve if you're coming from Arch or any of its derivatives.
Pro Compatible with Arch Repositories
It is fully compatible with almost all packages from community, extra, multilib and AUR.
Cons
Con Not a systemd free distro
It uses a different init and service management than systemd, but this distro uses elogind which provides a vast majority of systemd library. The entire system is based on it and impossible to remove without a big effort of compilation for many packages. So, Artix is not a systemd free distro.
