    Update your system frequently,
    that minimizes the chance of things breaking in my experience.

      I only ever update between projects - no way am I going to break something in the middle of everything.

      This time, jump to new gnome means broken extensions as usual, and a hilarious one: qbittorrent doesn’t show it’s window in Wayland (gnome-with-X works). The soft is running, it there in the list of apps, there’s even a big X “Close Window” button on Zoom Out but no actual window.

      Eh. Lol?

        I learned to do that the hard way…

      But not too frequently. Updating too often on Arch will increase your chances of something breaking. Updating once a week or twice a week gives the developers some time to fix bugs and make changes to other packages as needed

        Your comment is my reasoning why I use Manjaro :P

        All the Arch niceness,
        with fewer bugs / breakage
        and easier to use.

        Sure you might get an issue from outdated dependencies from AUR packages from time to time, but the chance / impact of those is usually rather small.
