Arch is like making your own furniture vs buying ready made. It's not meant to be easy and you have to know what you are doing or are willing to spend hours learning and experimenting. If you want easy go Ubuntu or some popular distro. If you want source code level control, LFS.

With Arch, you need to block out a weekend for you to change the oil yourself.
