The only few reason I know so far is software availability, like adobe software, and Microsoft suite. Is there more of major reasons that I missed?

I know people meme around about it but have you actually experienced it yourself? As an Arch user myself, can't confirm.

Yes.

My last experience was around 2 months ago with a driver issue. In the forums, someone linked a solution, and a lot of comments were in the lines of "Seriously? This was already in the newsletter, why are people not reading/subscribed to it. It's their problem then". Funnily enough, an actually helpful comment noted that the newsletter solution had a typo that made the solution not work as expected.
