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".

I had one btrfs partition that just got corrupted for some reason. One day after changing nothing except updating the system, I rebooted and the partition wouldn't boot. Lost a lot of good stuff on it. This was Arch, but I don't think it has anything to do with it being Arch...
