    Switching to something rolling release makes sense. My Arch setup (btw) has always felt much more stable than when I was using Ubuntu, because with Ubuntu I’d inevitatebly run into a bug, find out it was fixed months ago but won’t be backported, and then either live with it or try custom-installing the newer version of that thing. Or I’d install something manually that expected dependency X be the latest version, etc.

      That’s exactly why I moved to Arch too…

      I don’t recall what it was, but the fixed upstream version had been around for months, so I just moved.

      I’ve even helped report / triage bugs, and they’ve been fixed and appeared in updates, which gives a good feeling
