DISCLAIMER: Arch Linux is not a beginner friendly distribution, and this is not a recommendation or good practice.

I know how to use pacman -S. I have yet to experience a Discover related issue after months of use.

    it is more about arch’s philosy being your system may not boot next update, happens pretty much no where else, except windows, manjaro and sometimes ubuntu

      Yeah … no thanks. I’ll be okay with slightly outdated versions of various packages, as long as they still work.

        I mean I’ve been running an arch derivative for nearly ten years and the last time I got got was an Nvidia driver bug in 2020.

        As much as arch talks about it it doesn’t happen that often.

        I’m not sure it’s ever happened to me. I imagine it must have, because of Arch’s reputation, but I can’t recall it ever actually happening to me personally.
