I finally took the chance and moved away from Windows on my daily driver. I am squashing bugs and weird system issues as they come up, and it's been really fun. I'm so happy to have switched. (programming.dev)

So far it's been a lot of troubleshooting for just some random issues. There were some quirks with some of the hardware I have that I had to figure out, but the Arch Wiki is so helpful. Even for really niche things and situations. Knock on wood, but I think I'm finally at a point where it's stable on my system. Hasn't crashed on me once yet today.

The wiki is also why I chose arch, it's just so good. And if you can't figure stuff out on your own, ask on the forums. I screwed my keyboard up so hard it would only work inside the tty and stop working when I launch SDDM, posted on the arch forum and after a little back and forth we figured it out. That took less than 12 hours and it was the best support I ever got on anything. Plus, it's now there for anyone to find in case they run into the same issue.
