    Arch has never “broken” on me through my 3 years of using it, but after a while weird issues would start to appear. Like for example my login manager just stopped working permanently and I had to do startplasma-wayland. Ssh agents also subtly broke. Stuff like that. I forgot to enable fstrim and my system freaked out during I/O eventually. These are all technically user error, but I don’t feel like spending so much time on managing my operating system.

    I ended up switching to Fedora and was pleasantly surprised how well it’s setup by default.

      idk Arch’s timeline, but back in Janurary CachyOS changed from using SDDM to Plasma Login Manager and their news release had some manual commands to enter in to migrate more smoothly.

        every login manager was broken, it’d just crash after I put in my password. It was the final straw
