My older sibling did something similar - getting Ubuntu installed on my very first laptop (a 9" netbook) back in 2008 and replacing windows XP. But be warned: it is a slippery slope. At the time , I just wanted a computer that I could take class notes on (high school), and never wanted to touch programming or the terminal. Now I have a PhD in computer science. I still don’t use Arch though.

It’s two-fold: lots of parking, and lack of good alternatives. If we just reduce parking requirements, but don’t provide safe, reliable alternatives (eg quality public transit and bike lanes), you get angry drivers and sad (or dead) cyclists.
