This is not my experience at all I have been daily driving arch for months for work and hobby development without a single issue. In fact it’s easier to fix issues or keep things like my config working on arch than it was on macOS.

I've been daily driving mint for a year. I use it to program, watch videos and play games on steam (fairly powerful rig).

I didn't have to fix issues or keep my config working. It just works.
