I was Nobara user, then I am using Fedora right now. I want to use things like Hyprland etc. and ya know, Its damn cool to say I am using arch btw. So I’ve decided to use Arch Linux. But everyone says its always breaking and gives problems. That’s because of users, not OS… right? I love to deal with problems but I don’t want to waste my time. Is Arch really problemful OS? Should I use it? I know what to do with setup/ usage, the hardness of Arch is not problem for me but I am just concerned about the mindset “Arch always gets broken”.

    It’s always a good idea to be aware of .pacnew/.pacsave files. If you ignore them everything might still work but you might end up using old configs. This might not break anything but could have security or performance implications. A system can slowly “rot” this way while still appearing to be fine.
