Users are finally figuring out that some Linux distros are easy to use

so recommending arch linux to newbies was counter productive all along?

I refuse to accept that. The ArchWiki is super well documented, so there should be no issues for newbies!

Yes, the arch wiki is very good and useful. The issue is, that you need the wiki in the first place. In a user-friendly distro everything would either work OOTB, or it could be done intuitively via GUI.
