      The best was on arch because I had no idea how to use pacman, which I needed to install man, when I needed how to use pacman. I will have to take a look at tldr. I mostly use Debian without a desktop environment, but have an Arch VM for gaming here and there. Works out.

      Agreed, in any context where I’d open man I’d rather tldr instead. If you needed to read chunks of documentation like in man I’d rather just google the docs instead than clunkily try to read in terminal.
