Problems I had were because of software not being on the latest version

I really need to get someone to make a jingle for this: just use flatpak/appimage/distrobox/nix...

Things just work on Arch for me.

And how long have you been using that install? I ran arch and derivatives for 2+ years on multiple devices and can't count how many times they failed to boot due to an update.

MX + nix unstable give me the same bleeding edge packages without risking my system exploding randomly, while also giving me a bunch of other benefits.
