Not 100% sure but there's a tiny possibility for that to be the case.

Re: Distrowatch Artix rank boost, idea Reply #18 – 30 August 2022, 21:19:47 Well , you should not care about the rankings ... Everyone has a choice and everyone tries to find the best suit for him. I never looked at rankings about anything because thats the ranking given by the people and not me. Their choice is different and mine is different. I found Artix to be the best available distro that suits to my needs and I don't care what other people do and think because I will be using it for me and not for them. I wanted a rolling distro free of systemd . Openrc as the init system( runit also if not openrc) and with minimal installed packages (not bloated) based on arch as i like the pacman package manager. so artix is the one i am using why because it have the things i wanted. ( however i want to use qtile wm) even thats not in the artix community but i forgetted about that and use mate edition becuase there is not other distro that has the things i want. some are bloated and many use systemd.

Re: Distrowatch Artix rank boost, idea Reply #20 – 01 September 2022, 18:07:43 Distrowatch doesn't mean much as its so open to manipulation - if you've been watching with amusement over the last few weeks, you might have noticed that some silly little sausage posted on the 30/7 and ever since then they've been flat-lining any votes other than their own post (rating: 4), which is basically a rant without any actual understanding, piece of shit (I'm assuming they've been using tor browser and doing a "new identity" so as to make so many votes in such a short period of time). But, looking on the sunny side, I don't wake up next to them, and whoever does I feel rather sorry for, that's on the assumption they're not just sat in there dirty duds all day eating doughnuts whilst trolling...now there's an image that could haunt anyone.

Re: Distrowatch Artix rank boost, idea Reply #21 – 02 September 2022, 12:41:28 Of course when you see such biased rankings towards a distro like Artix that has so many positive comments and has so much to say in Linux world, you just disregard such ridiculous ranking. But i visit rather often that page to see how much and how long their dishonesty can go.
