Description

Arch Linux is a self-sufficient, x86-64 general-purpose GNU/Linux distribution that aims to deliver the most current stable software versions through a rolling-release approach. Its standard installation offers a bare-minimum base system, allowing users to customize their setup by installing only the necessary components. The philosophy of Arch Linux emphasizes simplicity, defined as the absence of unnecessary enhancements or alterations. The distribution provides software as originally released by upstream developers, minimizing downstream modifications, and avoiding patches that are not accepted upstream; any changes made are predominantly backported bug fixes that will be addressed in the next release. Furthermore, Arch includes the configuration files from upstream, with changes limited to specific distribution needs, such as modifying file paths within the system. Notably, Arch does not incorporate automation features like automatically enabling services upon package installation, thereby maintaining user control over their environment. This approach allows users to tailor their systems closely to their needs, fostering a deeper understanding and appreciation of their operating system.

Description

PLD is a free Linux distribution based on RPM, established in 1998, designed for experienced users and administrators who are willing to make compromises for greater flexibility, often requiring manual configuration. Its support for numerous architectures and a progressive stance on RPM application ensures that users experience a reliable environment across nearly all hardware platforms. This approach not only enhances usability but also fosters a diverse community of users who appreciate the freedom to customize their systems.
