I was Nobara user, then I am using Fedora right now. I want to use things like Hyprland etc. and ya know, Its damn cool to say I am using arch btw. So I've decided to use Arch Linux. But everyone says its always breaking and gives problems. That's because of users, not OS.. right? I love to deal with problems but I don't want to waste my time. Is Arch really problemful OS? Should I use it? I know what to do with setup/ usage, the hardness of Arch is not problem for me but I am just concerned about the mindset "Arch always gets broken".

Who thinks that Arch always broke is one of the two:

An user that is trying to mess with the system always; or
A person that don't know Arch and is repeating non-sense

My Arch install has almost 5 years and I never had an issue that was like "oh no! O need to reinstall everything!"

Interesting enough, when I was using release-based distros, almost every big update my system become unstable and I had to reinstall me whole system.
