Arch has been my go to for almost 10 years now, and it was one of my favorites for 5 years prior. These days I rarely have any issues from updating. I have to use Ubuntu for work and I dread every distribution upgrade. I got lucky and the last one worked on my work laptop, but usually something stupid breaks.

I run arch on my laptop, my previous laptop, and my server. The install on my server is 7 years old now, and started life with an entirely different CPU brand. I won’t say I’ve never had to do any manual intervention, but the answer has been a Google search away pretty much every time.

I use Arch BTW

Imagine going on a road trip and getting stuck somewhere 3 hours from home with no cell phone

I upgraded my 10 year old brother bw laser to color a few years ago and gave the old one to a friend
