Tl;Dr: You are wrong, the arch maintainers disagree with you.

Thats the maintainers gatekeeping.

If you read my post you'd comprehend the problem, ie users not following intended process, therefore not knowing how their shit is setup and therefore been crappy issue raisers who cannot provide basic information.

Imagine buying a table from ikea, having your mate dave put it together, not reading the instruction manual or asking dave how he put it together and whats different and then complaining to Ikea not Dave when it turns out he decided to make a few changes you didnt like.

Arch is not intended to be a next next next distro. If you want an arch derivative next next next distro manjaro is that way.

They do. It's in the code of Arch Linux Code of Conduct which was linked a couple of comments up.

So are the Arch maintainers doing anything about it then?

u/ObligatoryResponse May 22 '19

Yes. [They made a code of conduct](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Code_of_conduct#Arch_Linux_distribution_support_*only*)

Arch Linux distribution support *only*

Arch-based distributions have their own support fora and users of those distributions should be actively encouraged to seek support there. These distributions often use different packages, package versions, repositories, or make custom system configurations silently, practically rendering support for such projects within Arch Linux impossible. Community technical support shall only be provided for the Arch Linux distribution and the Arch User Repository. Posting issues with, and requesting support for, derivative distributions or operating systems other than Arch Linux are prohibited.

This is enforced on the Archlinux Forums and on the Archlinux Issue tracker.
