    I mean - you control what gets installed on Arch. One finger pointing at arch is three pointing back in this scenario…

      You also control what’s being installed on other distros. In fact, other distros split their packages in a way more modular way which allows one to pick and choose what one needs granularly. In Arch, the package count is lower because the maintainers don’t split stuff up. But you get all the so called bloat when you installna regular package
