Please explain this to me. It is stable till it's not? What happens during that time that makes arch no longer stable?
If you go a long time without updating there are generally lots of updates. So when you update sometimes you can have dependency issues. Basic maintenance prevents this.
Personally I never have this issue and generally don't have any issues with Arch. Truly have no idea why people think it's unstable. Maybe bad experiences with Manjaro which is Arch based. Now that distro has stability issues! Garuda and vanilla arch have been rock solid as far as my experience goes.
Have a project that I may have to go donw this route. Haven't touched Arch in many years so I'd figure it be more "stable". Didn't know if there were inherent issues. Doesn't sound like there is just basic maintenance. Thanks for explaining.
