Arch Linux in 2026 - Still Worth It? - With @DistroTube

A Linux Cast podcast episode featuring DistroTube (Derek) discussing Arch Linux and Arch-based distributions in 2026. Topics include whether Arch-based distros are still relevant, the AUR's role as a differentiator, the CachyOS kernel, immutable Linux distributions, Wayland adoption on Nvidia hardware, window manager preferences (Qtile, Xmonad, Niri), Linux desktop market share growth, and the history of Arch-based distros like Archbang, ArcoLinux, and Arch Labs. The panel debates Fedora's positioning, Arch's infrastructure challenges, and how gaming (Steam Deck) and AI tools are driving new Linux adoption.
