Learning resources and material-wise, which distro has an easier learning curve - Debian or Arch?

["Susmita/Rajib" <bkpsusmitaa@gmail.com>]

My dear illustrious leaders and senior list members of debian-user ML,

I hope I will have a clear reply on the matter by the end of the
inputs received for this query.

For example, in Debian https://wiki.debian.org/LXDE has almost
nothing. Whereas Arch has at least a better wiki documentation on
LXDE. Also, as described in the earlier post:
https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2023/05/msg00792.html, the native
wiki website of LXDE is non-existent.

ArchLinux LXDE is not Debian LXDE. The corresponding packages
available in any one of the two isn't compatible with the other
(.tar.bz2 vs .deb). Debian installation via synaptic (or apt) is very
organised and simple for me.

So this query also: is .deb packages a better alternative than
.tar.bz2? What are the pros and cons if the two are compared?

I tried to add a menu item to the right click, drop down menu in LXDE,
but failed to find any information on this.

I moved away from LXDE as a result and have begun using OpenBox.

So my question becomes all the more pertinent.

Best wishes,
Rajib B
