I was an Arch user for 7 years and it never broke on me. Started with Gnome, than changed to XFCE after a couple of years and on my last year using it, I had no DE, only a WM. So multiple configurations, all rock solid. And I learned a ton in the process. Highly recommend using it.
Arch has a good package manager and tests updates, but it is still a DIY distro.
If you add BTRFS snapshots with snapper, or timeshift with whatever, it is more stable.
What all traditional distros lack though, most important imho, is a "factory reset" feature.
Fedora Atomic desktops have this.
rpm-ostree reset
Here is the issue tracker on more factory reset components to have a "like Android" experience. (Reset /etc, reset LUKS password, recreate a new user account)
If you want Hyprland on there, qoijjj maintaines wayblue where PRs for good defaults will for sure be accepted.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
