    People that got into Linux when most of the main distributions were easier to install than windows in most cases. Some people wanted to show off that they can install a Linux like it was when we did it back in the 90s for some reason I still don’t understand till this day. I do like their wiki though. Works great for debian as well as arch.

      I’ve been a slackware user since the late 90s. I take for granted how easy it is to install today. I’ve been tinkering with a socket 7 build, and nothing is easy. Installing slackware 8 is a pain in the ass. I can’t even get half my hardware working on win95! It’s not like riding a bicycle.
