They say debian is free and has its promise, but Arch has like 2-4 maintainers?

        :3 I would have thought best of both worlds be more like: install Devuan, read everything on https://bedrocklinux.org/, run the script once knowing the implications of running it and are enthused for this nontrivial change of your system, and then just brl fetch arch. Or other way around if you prefer arch’s installer. Or Debian/Devuan, Arch/Artix(/Obarun/Joborun/etc) if preferring init freedom.

        Edit: … cos then you can do cool things like apt upgrade && pacman -Syu

        The lack of PPA support might bite you though. For newcomers I’d strongly recommend staying with the standard Mint (Cinnamon) version, any reason not to is highly technical and more of an issue for the maintainers.
