rehman15447yReallay? I'm debian jessy user and my fellow linux user says I shouldn't switch to arch as i strive for stability and arch crashes

It made me learn that when it come to computers, if it's not a hardware issue and things get fucked up, you did something wrong.
And you can most probably fix it. Sometimes its not easy, but that's how you learn. -
@rehman I'd say it depends on how you configure/install it. You install your OS from the ground up. Install drivers, WiFi, display, sound, etc. The arch Wiki really has everything.
On the bright side of things, you get to learn how everything works. For instance, on Ubuntu the screen brightness keyboard button works out of the box (most of the time). But you don't necessarily know what action it does in the background to make it work.
With Arch you know exactly which program and keymap runs this. -
I switched from arch to fedora two weeks ago, because my arch randomly became unbootable... Now I miss arch. Fedora sucks. I'll get my Arch back as soon as I have time for it.

I got into arch through Antergos. It's really cool and AUR is awesome, but I'm not feeling like a real arch user because I haven't tapped into any non trivial arch stuff yet. What do I need to do?

At first, I was skeptical and somewhat resilient of trying Arch Linux. As a former Debian based distros user, I have to say : once you go Arch you don't go back! Time to 🍚 it up a bit more!
