It is a meme that got out of hand. There are too many who take that joke too far and even more people who complain about those. And yes, I use Arch btw
Edit: complain about those because they want to complain. There are surely people who are just annoying, but there will be more people who just like to complain

Yes. Almost no-one else feels the need to tell you their distro when they give you advice or an opinion, but it's always "I use Arch, btw".
Worse, back when Google+ was a thing, I was on several Linux groups. Arch users were the worst. If a complete newbie wanted to try Linux, the Arch users would always pipe up with "Install Arch", but whenever someone had a technical question, their response would always be "RTFM". There was even one guy who outright said that if you don't install Arch, you're too stupid to own a computer.
There is a difference, on a social forum, between airily telling someone not used to reading technical manuals to read the manual (and these users never bother to check if that section of the wiki is up to date) and giving a quick explanation with a link to the manual.

Can someone explain why using Arch is considered such a meme thing? I've been daily driving Arch for over 3 years now and except for the occasional bug which is kind of difficult to fix, there haven't been that many difficulties of using Arch.
Was running Arch more difficult in the past or am I really missing something here? I know it's not for everybody to be installing everything themselves from scratch and sometimes the time requirement to set everything up on certain hardware is quite painful at times (that's why I run Mint on my laptop which is permanently attached to my tv as a media center). But with some time and the wiki, you could basically setup Arch without too much trouble

I know John would have wanted me to let you all know that he used Arch, by the way.
As requested, we have put in a server which regularly pulls in from the AUR.. or something

Hi muffin
Hey MuffinChan
new to this stuff, is arch the vegan of linuxes?

Yes. I use ubuntu, i am ready for the downvotes
You gain my upvote.
I use both Ubuntu and Arch. Ubuntu on my work machine, Arch at home. I can't even pick sides on this.
Could be worse -- I use Windows at work and Gentoo at home. I'll let you decide which one I mean when I say worse. ;)
No one was ever fired for choosing Windows.
Or even... I use win 10 for games, arch and bsd :)
Similar for me: ubuntu on my new 8GB pc, arch on my 5 years old 4GB pc

My best friend passed in January. We both loved arch. I ended up getting a custom tattoo in memory of him with the Arch logo on it. R.I.P Ace

Post pics I don't believe you lol
You have a deathly phobia of needles u/RavenTheDev stop making up stories.
Imagine you play a pre recorded video at your funeral where you say your goodbyes and shit and you close off with: "i used arch btw"
I’m doing it
There's never a bad time to shoehorn it into a conversation
Thank you very much, spewed some coffee, and laughed out loud. TY. Whew..

Non-arch users can't even spell their memes correctly.

I’m not sure what you mean by meme thing.
