I’m using Arch Linux for 2 years. I subscribed to Arch’s mailing lists and I check my mails daily. I use flatpak instead of AUR.
I installed my system with archinstall and I update whenever I want. I didn’t have any issues yet and it’s the only distro that just works for me.
What about your experience? Any “breakage”?
I actually had a problem with the latest kernel a few weeks back. Switched to LTS and that fixed it. To be fair, it’s the only real “breakage” I’ve experienced in the past year.
I use LTS for daily things and Zen for gaming. Oh also LTS doesn’t have NTFS support, because it gave me error with my old USB disk. Zen kernel solved everything. It also has good patches that vanilla kernel doesn’t have.
I was on Zen kernel and that broke for me. I could probably update right now to the latest kernel versiom and my issues might be resolved but I think I’ll be sticking to LTS jntil I have a good reason to swith back to Zen.
