Arch Linux is a fantastic distribution. It should remain exactly that: a

I'm sorry but why do you care about the damn logo? And sinc
Equality and freedom of genre/sex decisions is not politics, it's just
basic human rights.
Or, it is politics, and then everything is politics.
Also, to look in other direction and ignore social issues is also a
political stance, and the free software is extremely sociopolitical...
Anyway. Polit

I think one can just ignore the "systemd month" and all that accompanies it.
Or stop visiting Reddit.
However yeah, it's a bit sad that someone would think of changing a logo from

If you don't want to see the logo, you can either use custom CS
Well, the way I see it, they can keep the rainbow on their logo all year
long. After all, I see the rainbow as a symbol of its original meaning,
that God set His bow in the cloud as a covenant between Him and us that
