> Arch has the best documentation, so I decided to switch to it.
Not an Arch user but their documentation is amazing (small sample[0]). I toyed with FreeBSD years ago and have never forgotten just how well documented the entire system was too[1].
Well-written documentation (with plenty of real world examples) is severely underappreciated in modern tech. It's not only empowering but it's just plain fun getting under the hood.

This can't be said enough. Complete, well-written, well-maintained documentation is a key divide separating open- and closed-source. It's expensive and time-consuming to produce — and absolutely essential. Trying to understand how to access a critical setting that some UI wizard has hidden from view in Windows? GLWT.
