Most people in this thread don't get it.

You know how some people compete to see who can get Doom to run on the craziest platforms, like a calculator?

Installing Arch with the fewest packages is like that. There's something oddly satisfying about stripping everything back to the most basic level - to make things work for you within the most constrictive environment you enforce for yourself.

It's like eating a spicy shellfish dinner and super gluing your asshole closed.

Nano.. Pfff...

Requires three dependencies, while Vi requires one. Everyone can see how bloated your system is. You should be embarrassed.
