@nixCraft Having to read stuff to make sure updates don't break your system is wild... But somehow Arch users try to turn these into a bragging point.
Lenny@wststreet @nixCraft Nah, the bragging is more of a meme. I just prefer rolling releases over big "look out!" upgrades. And tbh I don't read the Arch news and have not had a system break in over 7 years. Can't say that about the Ubuntu installation of my partner.
@f09fa681 @nixCraft I didn't break my whole system, but every update would break an app or just had issues with repos not working. (I was on CachyOS though, not actual Arch)
Whereas on Mint I can't even remember the last time an update broke something.
I think in the end it depends on each person's use case, there's a fitting distro for most people out there :)
@wststreet @nixCraft I think that is very true - it depends very much on the use case. Arch probably works very well for me because I have a minimalist setup and I don't mind fixing some issues here and there, since they pretty much always open up a general improvement in one way or another, at the very least because I'm learning more. But that's not hassle-free and not for everyone.
