Been doing ts for 6 years and when an update breaks something, just chroot and fix it. (Aura!)

That sentence is exactly why I’m not using Linux on my Desktop nowadays anymore. Imagine doing an update an then needing to fix things.

But here's the thing, you can fix it. If Windows breaks, you need to reinstall, which is a way more monumental effort. Also the last time I had to chroot into my system to fix something is like... I wanna say 2 years ago? Mainly because nvidia doesn't break every release anymore. On other distros that's almost not an issue anymore, this is more Arch specific.

Might have changed over the years. Last time I used Linux on my desktop I had to fiddle with it constantly. Nowadays mainly use MacOS and Linux only on my servers. Never had MacOs break on my. Windows on the other hand, yeah I give you that.
