Who is having breaking update issues anymore in 2026? I’ve been running vanilla Arch for 10 years and the only times that has happened (there have been a handful I guess) the archwiki says “hey there’s a breaking change run these 2 commands” and it’s fixed. As a beginner on Linux I actually switched to Arch because every Ubuntu issue I googled was 6 to 10 lines to fix while arch was 1 to 3 lines. The only problem is that the OS expects that you be able to read, which is sometimes tough.
I can’t imagine being on a system that is multiple major releases behind on basic things like nvim and python. I guess if you’re content not to use anything remotely current it makes sense.
