In my opinion, Pacman is a better choice than apt. Perhaps Linux Distros should consider migrating.

The dev is very active & is constantly improving the distro. New ISOs released regularly.

The dev made this one of the best Distros and easy to add/remove deesktops or wm without breaking the system.

The effort and work put in is evident, doesn't look finished half way

The developers made sure this distro was crafted well. Really nothing I would change, and the default ensure you won't be installing malware.

The Site is informative and gives a nice insight into what you can expect from this beautiful distro. For the first time ever for me no customization needed everything is perfect.
