I’ve had Fedora break way more on me than Arch ever did. Arch is easy to recover from. It’s fine. And it’s always the same song and dance from people who have clearly never used it. “how do you keep it going? how do you prevent it from breaking? how hard was it to install?” none of the above. Arch isn’t some beast of a distro that you constantly need to feed to keep happy. you can literally update the thing once a month if you so choose. I’m on NixOS now and those updates are more likely to break than anything on Arch. which NixOS it’s pretty much a monthly thing where you’ll update your flake and some random dependency for Krita or like Steam just won’t work anymore therefore those programs won’t work (but that’s easy to circumvent thanks to flake locks) I never had that issue on Arch. I HAD many issues with Fedora just straight up breaking the entire system if I happened to uninstall the the wrong thing.

With the Archinstall it’s even easier than ever to install it. I think the hardest thing is if you’re installing via wifi just remembering the commands for that. now Archinstall walks you through everything, even lets you select a DE/WM and installs sane defaults with it. Arch is fine, it’s easier than ever. Dare I say it’s easier than something like Void or OpenSUSE tumbleweed (dreadful installer)
