Before Arch, was Gentoo. I chose Gentoo to actually learn Linux, and boy did I learn! 

Unfortunately, a Gentoo fact of life is the drudgery of compiling from source. At first, I did not mind, but later, it became too demanding timewise.

When I tried out Arch, I found that I could still learn, and be free from the time consuming compilation task. Like others here, I credit Arch with

* Great Communities, both at reddit and at bbs.archlinux.org

* Great wiki (Gentoo has a great wiki also)


A BIG THANK YOU goes out to the people that make Arch happen!!
