Phoronix: Arch-Based Antergos Linux Distribution Calls It Quits

The Arch-based Antergos Linux distribution that aimed to make Arch Linux more accessible to the Linux desktop masses is closing up shop...

Michael, this is your time to finally include official Arch Linux in your benchmarks.

I still prefer the CLI installer Anarchy Linux. Makes things quick and easy and i can leave my system while it's installing. Antergos always had problems with it's installer for me... the temporary install cache failing to work, the installer freezing up and crashing, and forgetting drive settings i selected.

Oh noooooooo :-( This was my favourite and fastest way to install Arch. Guess I have to use and develop by own script now.

I'm not much of a fan of Arch (More Gentoo / or BSD) but... this was the best Arch. Was cleaned and polished.

And now their watch has ended..

Not as good, IMO.

Too bad. This was the best Arch based distro.

Aww . My current distribution, and I simpy love it. Arch is great, but the install process is not. The Antergos installer worked wonderfully and I haven't had a single issue so far. Sad times . Is there any other more-or-less pure arch with installer available? (and no, Manjaro is not a good option imo)
