How do I make sure my Arch Linux install is safe from hackers?

do nothing. hackers have no interest in an OS that is 0.0000000001% of the market.

Might as well install nixos since all the important stuff is read only

install gentoo. they can't hack you if your kernel modules never actually compile.

plug unused ports with a wax seal so you can easily tell when it was penetrated

How can I tell if it was penetrated before I got my hands on it? Don't want used goods.

Virually all Linux distros have code checked into them by state sponsored hackers mainly china but also thye NSA North Korea and France as well as organised crime groups. They are a mass of kernel exploits.

This is all that 99.9% of people need.

BUllshit. You are all morons who think you know a thing or tworunning a backdoored machine to the NSA and the CCP. Tech has been overloeaded with pretentious talentless morons since the .com boom. Linux is prehacked by default. If it6 had more than a few % of desktops you would be drowned in ransomware as it stands its mainly used for sideways m ovement from DMZs by brig crooks who are given exploits by states that injected them into it. Shit for shitheads. Always was, always will be.

You're a child to me all you can do is shout at some tribe in your head like it is a console war while you run linux crap rooted by the nsa and ccp like the low level mouthbreather you are larping as something you are not. Linux is the land of the stupid and talentless desperate to be seen as alt.2600 when they were not even born then

Maybe criticize his suggestions instead of going full sperg. His points were pretty solid.

My points are the truth. Linux BECAUSE IT IS OPEN SOURCE has actors checking in exploits for every major power on earth for a decade. YOU are all braindead.

TLDR. IT is not safe from hackers or state actors. Linux distros are the most insecure operating system on earth and come preloeaded with kernel exploits checked in by every major power for over a decade. Enjoy..

That's not criticizing the other guys points. That's just you raving like a looney and equating it to some geopolitics slop.
I'm beginning to think YOU are the moron you're accusing him to be since you won't even engage with him.

yeah that's why basically all Supercomputers use it:
