I realized my VLC was broke some point in the week after updating Arch. I spend time troubleshooting then find a forum post with replies from an Arch moderator saying they knew it would happen and it’s my fault for not wanting to read through pages of changelogs. Another mod post says they won’t announce that on the RSS feed either. I thought I was doing good by following the RSS but I guess that’s not enough.
I’ve been happily using Arch for 5 years but after reading those posts I’ve decided to look for a different distro. Does anyone have recommendations for the closest I can get to Arch but with a different attitude around updating?
Mate it’s been six years. Half a decade. Manjaro hasn’t exploded a single time in at least the last three and beyond that has had only minor issues related to their website in that time.
You have to be dense to be holding something that happened six years ago against a project.
So go and use it then? I don’t care what you do.
