A lot of people probably won’t like this, but personally I feel like Arch is a terrible OS from an average user’s perspective. It offers nothing notable of value to its users, while making sacrifices in critical areas.
Unstable as hell and constantly breaks for no reason. On top of that, it’s seriously insecure, as shown on exhibit A. It’s not the first time, and it won’t be the last.
Why not use Mint, Fedora, Zorin, Pop!_OS, or any of countless Linux distros that work perfectly and don’t suffer from Arch’s issues?
Note: I’m not an OS developer and mean no hate towards Arch devs or users. I’m simply speaking from a user experience perspective.
My experience is arch is more stable than ubuntu. Broke once in the last 10 years, because of a bug in a package, fixed the system with manual upgrade from live usb in 1h.
AUR is not part of the archlinux repositories, it’s a community thing with mostly the same security problems every similar package manager has (npm, gems, etc.)
1-1, we did not learn anything except you don’t like arch.

You said Ubuntu three times. /s
AUR is supposed the last resort, after distro repos, building from source, Flatpak, and Appimage. Ubuntu’s equivalent to the AUR would be PPAs.
Personally, I have fewer problems gaming on Arch than any other I’ve tried.
He said Debian 3 times
I had heard that Ubuntu is an old African word for “can’t configure Debian”
