Do you have any advice on running arch as main system? Wanted to try it cus of newer packages, but I really don’t want to upkeep it a lot. Is it easier nowadays?
I’m sorry, I don’t know anything about fedora. Does it have up-to-date packages like arch? I also have an Nvidia card, does fedora have proprietary drivers available?
if you game a lot, you can also take a look into nobara, which comes with a lot of gaming stuff out of the box, like nvidia drivers, steam, discord and so on. it’s based on fedora, the differences in operating it are minimal :-)
I use Ansible. Just have to be careful with the playbooks, so you won’t end up with a bricked system.
I run the playbooks once a week from one of the systems and takes care of them. In my case quite a number of them are always online (raspberry pi), so that’s convenient.

Just use fedora if you don’t have a very specific arch need

Yup, and they’re very easy to setup
It’s pretty stable too
If your Nvidia drivers do break, just uninstal and reinstall them (reinstalling isn’t enough, you have to uninstall and install them again)
Sounds great, I’ll give fedora a try. Thanks for info!

I don’t game much right now, but thanks for the info! I’ll keep that in mind
I’ve been running Fedora since Fedora Core 1 was released.

That has worked pretty well.
