I don’t know what distro y’all are on, but I’ve been a beginner on an Arch based distro for a couple of years and I haven’t had a major issue that wasn’t fixed by an update and reboot.
I used vanilla arch and most popular derivatives, on multiple devices, for something like 5 years. Also, I avoided using AUR whenever possible.
I haven’t had a major issue that wasn’t fixed by an update and reboot.
Meanwhile I’d update and fail to boot. True, for most scenarios I could just roll back and wait a week before updating, but I had to live boot and arch-chroot plenty of times.
The most annoying was some work backup all in one. I’d update it at most like once a month, it would fail to boot 1/3 times, and i’d rollback, wait a few weeks, and then update again with no issues.
I gave up on arch after working abroad and having to weigh which install command is more likely to fuck up my system after being too afraid to do an update for like a month.

Not quite as long for me, but the only challenges I’ve had with CachyOS are with Windows apps and PEBKAC errors.
