Is "it works" the average experience of an Arch user?
Edit: Folks, I know it wasn't clear, but this was rhetorical. I love the passion that motivates all of you to share your personal experiences - it's what keeps Linux moving forward... But you beautiful bastards need to chill.
My former colleague was an Arch user and barely a week passed without him having major issues. My guess would be "no".
He probably haven't read the wiki
You mean the one that helps you unfuck things... after the OS has started having issues again.
The one that tells you what you can do and how to fix things if you messed up. It's a DIY distro.
Arch generally works (based on the 3 machines I've tried it on) unless you change something and if you messed something up you can always roll it back if you're smart enough to have planned ahead and didn't wipe your backup.
