Yeah.

Arch also does its own packaging on its repos.

I know, I said "custom-builds with custom configurations", I mean the custom configurations many distros add.

I also feel like Debian is very clean, but I still miss the big community under Arch, their wiki and AUR...

Custom configs is for people who might not want to tinker as much so maybe it's not for you if you prefer Arch.

To answer the question you asked previously, yes I had issues with custom configs from Debian. One I remember is mupdf being launched by a bash script and thus not understanding why did I have two PIDs (one for bash, one for the mupdf binary) when starting.

For context this was important because I needed to know the PID of mupdf to send a SIGHUP to update the view.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
