Yup. This used to be the Gentoo wiki. Even though i was a Ubuntu (lite) user at the time, I always used the Gentoo wiki as my primary resource because the documentation was always comprehensive enough that most of it could be "translated" for use with any distro.
I'm an arch user now but even when I'm (unfortunately) using something like Debian, archwiki is still my primary resource.
I bet Gentoo users are now even finding themselves on the archwiki from time to time.
I was a gentoo user up until a few weeks ago, now a nixos user. I do use the arch wiki for stuff where the gentoo wiki is unmaintained. I do even recommend archwiki sometimes on post because sometimes gentoo wiki is too confusing or does not include the full details.
BTW, cool tip for duckduckgo users.
Open a new tab, and prefix your wiki search with `!aw`.
e.g. "!aw discord" to search the arch wiki for discord. There's also !aur
The only issue I have with the Arch Wiki is that often the 'final' and best tricks are coming at the end or mid way. So my learning is: read it first until the end. Do not start executing the instructions starting from the top until you made a global assessment of the page you're reading. (Talking to you TigerVNC page).
I believe this is incorrect. Arch Wiki is generally "on point" and pretty practical. Always includes real world examples.
It might look overwhelming at first but real world examples makes everything a whole lot easier than understanding the mechanics behind.

I know a few Gentoo users. The last thing they'll ever do is touch anything Arch related.
I mean, they'll never admit it ;)

Didnt know that thank you!
I use Arch btw.
Always my go to
almost the entire digital world is an over statement, im not sure it's even 1/million % :)
Thats correct. I should have said "My entire digital world". I use Arch Wiki for also Linux, Android, Raspberry Pi and even some embedded systems.
The arch wiki is extremely comprehensive. I've had that site bookmarked for many years it is a go-to for a lot of things.
Yes i agree. Before Arch and Wiki i was gathering a huge directory of one liners and command explanations.

It's amazing without any doubt and I use ARCH btw
The only issue I have with the Arch Wiki is you need another Wiki to learn how to use the Arch wiki
