I was Nobara user, then I am using Fedora right now. I want to use things like Hyprland etc. and ya know, Its damn cool to say I am using arch btw. So I’ve decided to use Arch Linux. But everyone says its always breaking and gives problems. That’s because of users, not OS… right? I love to deal with problems but I don’t want to waste my time. Is Arch really problemful OS? Should I use it? I know what to do with setup/ usage, the hardness of Arch is not problem for me but I am just concerned about the mindset “Arch always gets broken”.

    I don’t use flatpak so no idea about that.

    But I use my system professionally so it just needs to work and I can’t be spending time fixing things. Luckily there is no need for that at all.

    Not saying arch is the most noob friendly distro out there but I wholeheartedly disagree with people saying you need to spend lots of time fixing things or keeping your system stable as that is simply not true.

      All good. Arch is just not for someone who doesn’t care about the computer at all and who doesn’t want to know what a firewall is. And it doesn’t matter which distro you use, you should always use the arch wiki. That’s the holy grail.
