To a great extent, the experience of using Arch is the experience of reading the Wiki and doing what it says. I say this without any judgement implied: if you don’t want to read the Wiki, Arch is not for you. Debian is an excellent distribution.
Personably I started using Arch because of its excellent Wiki, after three Fedora updates in a row failed on me and I found myself over and over in the Arch Wiki getting answers.
Yeah Arch is fine if you don’t mind stopping to search for an answer. Most times it’s in the wiki, a lot of times it’s a library upgrade that just causes the pm to fail. Fine if you know what to bang on but I got tired of having to bang.
