1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    What happened?

    [–] Unyieldingly@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago (2 children)

    It Broke far to many times, I used Arch Linux for about 5 years or longer, systemd fixed a lot of stuff, and some of the other changes, but i needed a more production stable system.

    I use ZFS Bootmenu with Debian Stable+flatpak and some backports these days and so for i only broke my system once.

    Oh, I thought there was some large change on the distro.

    I can relate. I've kept to the top of the hill for decades already.

    No way. Bleeding edge distribution broke? You had 5 years to hop on a better distro. Blame yourself.

    I'm not blaming Arch it's a meme, you don't have to get mad about it.

    I have broken or had the OS shit the bed with Android, DOS, Ubuntu, Fedora, Arch, Mint, SUSE, Redhat Linux, Mac OSX, IOS, and many copy's of Windows in my years. mostly with Windows it just shits the bed, you don't even have to try, Mac OS 7/8/9 use to love shitting the bed as well.

    I use to boot to Fedora, Mint, or Windows as well, mostly as backups (I used Linux for over 20 years) but I used Arch mainly as my Gaming OS, but i did some Dev on Arch as well, Arch is good long as stuff is not broken, it use to be if you installed a lot of packages, Arch was happy to break on you, now with flatpak that is not so much the case like it use to be, Arch is getting better thanks to upstream dev's taking away all the wiring we had to do over the years down stream.

    Arch with Bcachefs and Flatpak + pipeware and KDE Wayland is looking good to me, when Bcachefs is ready maybe with Kernel 7.0? next year i may try Arch once more.
