I have always been afraid to install Arch because they tell you it is difficult to install and unstable. I want a simple system following the KISS philosophy and install only what I need, which is little. I donโ€™t need anything from the aur repository, for now. Just a year ago I installed Arch and there it is, no problems and doing every day pacman -Syu. It has been a real discovery for me, itโ€™s the only distribution Iโ€™ve had this last year that hasnโ€™t crashed. I didnโ€™t expect it, but Arch has made me change my opinion and pay less attention to the opinions of โ€œyoutubersโ€ and more to my own experience. In your experience of use, has Arch been stable in its operation?

In your experience of use, has Arch been stable in its operation?

I use Arch since 2008 on multiple laptops and desktop PCs as well as multiple servers and it is the host system for my Docker-based selfhosting environment.

I never had any real issues.
