Hello!
I’ve bought new parts and I am awaiting their arrival so I can build my brand new computer. I’ve decided to go for Arch Linux with KDE plasma or perhaps Gnome as my desktop environment but that’s as far as I’ve come.

I figured I would ask the community if they have any tips or suggestions, thanks!
Truthfully, I think the amount of support Ubuntu has is a double-edged sword, because while it is easy to find resources for it, it’s also easy to find outdated information that doesn’t apply to newer versions. Similarly, with PPAs, they can be quite useful, but you also have to be careful not to hose your system with them.
If OP is willing to stick with Arch, and learn to work with it, then I say kudos to them. The main reason I don’t encourage new users to dive right into it is because I don’t want them to get discouraged and give up, People learn things different ways though, and for OP, this may just be the ticket for them.
