I am currently using Windows on an older HP Laptop, which I intend to replace with a Framework 16 by next summer, but my Desktop PC at home has been running EndeavourOS, my first ever Linux distro, since last summer, so I have some Arch-based experience.

As a learning experience I'd like to install raw Arch, but I'm wondering if it makes sense as a primary OS on something that should be a stable system, since I intend to use the laptop for university. I am planning on using btrfs and timeshift, so it shouldn't break too horribly, even if something goes wrong (and I don't wanna jinx it, but so far my EndeavourOS pc has been entirely fine too, so I didn't even run into such an issue yet), but depending on who you ask Arch is either the most stable distro they've ever used or bricked their pc ten seconds into the install process.

So now I'm curious on if you all think this is a stupid idea or if it should be fine. Should I try installing Arch and then for actual use replace it with another distro like Debian LTS, NixOS or something like Mint on a machine which fulfills a more critical role than my PC at home, or should I be alright rolling with Arch on my uni laptop?

As a side note, what's your take on using Arch vs EndeavourOS? It's roughly the same fundamentally, so is there any point in using Arch apart from the learning experience and being able to say "I use arch btw"? My reasoning for actually wanting to use it and not just wanting to set it up for the learning experience and then switching off to EOS or something entirely different is "I think it's neat", which is hardly a good reason long-term.

Note: This is all just a random idea I had a few days ago. I am mostly curious about what others think of it. I know it's not gonna be actually implemented anywhere. I wish it was that easy lol

~~Many people here have probably had someone complain to them that "They/Them pronouns are so confusing" while the same person accepts "you" as singular and plural~~.* Well, I propose a partial fix for both. Not in natural language, but at the very least text, because both of those bug me personally, even if just a little. I know any language that sees any actual use is going to be imperfect, but that doesn't stop me from sharing random ideas on the internet.

* Edit: Irrelevant and off-topic. Just keeping it here for archival(?) purposes.

First some background info:

In German, there's actually a similar problem, at least when spoken. It is, however, fixed in writing.

• "sie" -> "she"
• "Sie" -> "you" (singular, formal)
• "ihnen" -> "them"
• "Ihnen" -> "you" (singular, formal, different grammatical case)

Spot the difference? It's the capital S and I. So, why not take after the British Museum and steal things from a foreign ~~country~~ language?

How to fix this, according to a random person on the internet:

• "They/Them" -> Singular person with neutral pronouns
• "they/them" -> Multiple people

And while we're at it, we can also do

• "You" -> The person you are talking to
• "you" -> A group of people, or often more importantly, a general you

The Problem:

Sentences. The first letter of a sentence is always capitalized, which brings confusion back. This is a glaring weak spot, but since this idea is never going to be used anyways, I can't be bothered to actually find a good workaround. If You have any ideas though, feel free to share them.

So, what do you think? Is this idea fundamentally stupid, because everything is just fine as it is, or could a solution to imprecise pronouns actually be handy, even if this one is far from perfect?
