Just install it a few times without archinstall following the wiki and you will soon have better knowledge about linux filesystem and cli than the others.
That wiki install method is really terrible, 20 years ago I was using LFS as a daily driver, but still I look at the Arch wiki and go 'you want me to do WHAT to install?'
instructions are pretty good, but the tree is way higher (never installed Gentoo, but judging from how detailed the how to boot section of the install guide is, maybe I wouldn't be too lost if I did)
My Fedora sits on a remote cliff. The remains of a pre-RHEL RedHat egg shell can be seen far below. It is cold and alone there, but it is a familiar cold.

I use arch since 2019 and man does the wiki SUCK! You're better off googling everything since the wiki seems to contradict itself quite often too :/.

So what's Gentoo doing in all this? Murdering you in your sleep?

It just abandons its eggs before they hatch

I swear at one point I tried installing Gentoo, the manual could of just said "Compile your own shit pleb“
I use vanillaOS now

Okay true, but arch is really neat and minimal for when that matters

Me, if I were that bird on the last square:
"Jokes on you, IM ADOPTED!"

I learned more by setting arch up once than I did in a few years of using noob distros.
And I found out that most of the RTFM comments are justified because the manual is incredibly good.
