I only update Arch before installing new software, or when there’s a news item about something requiring manual intervention.
So about once a month.
Every update is basically a complete reinstall.
No no, it just installs the new packages and everything works. Takes a minute. What I meant is, it installs new versions for basically every installed package.
Ubuntu Repos: Sometimes runs out of food or accidentally spills two trays together
Fedora Repos: New plates every week
Debian Repos: Same 3 meals that are 5 star rated
Arch Repos: A machine gun that continuously fires pulverized food at your mouth
Manjaro repos: The Arch machine gun, but it keeps jamming.
