General off-topic chat for the crew of startrek.website. Trek-adjacent discussions, other sci-fi television, navigating the Fediverse, server meta (within reason), selling expired cases of Yamok sauce, it’s all fair game.

I've used an Arch-derived distro for some years now, and it's frankly by far the most stable computer(s) I've ever used.

I had some issues with Bluetooth and I think maybe the WiFi controller at first too, but I followed the instructions on the Arch wiki and I think installed an AUR package or something like that, and ever since then it's worked perfectly.

Compared to previous non-rolling distros, nothing has ever really broken directly due to the fault of an update, especially since I got rid of GNOME and their janky self-destructive user-hostile control freak extensions-reliant mess. And within the same time, one of the two Windows installations I had by comparison just suddenly stopped accepting keyboard input one day— On a laptop, with no way to fix or even investigate the issue— While the Arch-derived Linux distro on the same machine still worked perfectly.

I'm talking about an Arch-derived distro, and I didn't go through the Arch-from-scratch route, though.
