Reading ‘Arch Linux at work’ and imagining that just gave me a panic attack. I don’t know how you cope at all. And I don’t mean that shit breaks, I mean constant surprise feature updates that break my workflow.

Before private equity my work laptop was arch. It worked for a mobile unit and I had a desktop that was windows. In short though, this place is a nightmare now.

The only thing from the OS that could ruin my day would be a botched kernel update. And that is countered by hacking the LTS kernel. KDE updates bring new features but don’t ruin my workflow. And if they do I just roll back to the last snapshot and wait for a fix; never happened yet. Dev toolchains are versioned by repo anyway. Services run in containers. IDEs are installed with their own version manager.
