Well yeah, rolling release distros inherently require more fixing because you get all of the software as it is patched with far less testing for conflicts. If you want something you have to fix less get a stable release

Which is kinda why I like waiting a little but that doesn't really matter because it's always rolling. Guess I'm just delaying having to fix my system. So I update whenever I'm not busy with my life.

Yeah, I'm just saying with Arch the tweaking is a feature, not a bug. You can get the same UI with something far more plug and play using something like Debian Stable or even Mint if you like Cinnamon. I'm an openSUSE stan myself but thats just because I like to experiment, break things, and then roll my system back.

[-] pineapplelover@lemm.ee 2 points 4 months ago
