I’m curious about trying Arch Linux, but I want to know what’s difficult or impossible with it first, as that’s usually what stops me sticking with a distro.
I’m particularly interested in software/driver support. For example, NVIDIA doesn’t mention Arch in its CUDA download page.
UPDATE: OK it sounds like Arch is for bleeding edge. That sounds fun, but I like things simple and reliable, so I’ll still with Ubuntu. I might run Arch on my secondary drive, or toy with it in Docker.


Arch’s limitation is that you kinda have to stick with the latest version of things. This is usually a good limitation, and imo better than the limitation of having to stick with an old frozen version.
Depending on the package, trying an older version may not work or even break the system if dependencies or reverse dependencies are expecting it to be a certain version, which is often the case.
