Archy (lemmy.world)

Archbishop means “head/leader of the bishops”. “Archduke” means “head/leader of the Archduchy of Austria”. Archnemisis means your main/head nemesis (similar case with archenemy being your worst enemy). Anarchy means there is no state control, or no “head/leader”. No “archy”.

Also, does this mean that Arch Linux is the king of the distros?
