I had this happen once or twice, caused by bad Nvidia drivers with Wayland.
I use AMD now for my day job, haven’t had a single issue in over two years. That’s not to say you should use it - it’s still a rolling release distro and will always have a potential to break over most other distros.
Imagine NOT being banned from FreeDesktop
I use arch as a daily driver. Very seldom have any issues, and any issues I do have are from the software. I.e. mesa breaking vaapi, grub breaking boot, etc.
Use stagnant software if you can’t spare 5 minutes once in a while rolling back problematic packages.
I’ve had more issues with most distros than arch.
The narrative around Nvidia seems to have done a complete 180 in the last year or two. I’m skeptical that it’s as good as many are stating.
Are these OSS drivers maintained by Nvidia? Or is it Nouveau?
Gotcha
rEFInd doesn’t break and works really well, though I’m no bootloader guru so take my opinion with a grain of salt
Because rEFInd exists
Interesting. How long ago was this? I use arch daily as my main driver, but also run it on a vps, a laptop, and a raspberry pi (arm distro). Other than grub, I can’t recall the last time upgrading caused an issue.
Yes, I’ve been affected by the grub crap several times.
Been using arch and endeavour for about 5 years now, only ever had boot issues caused by Nvidia drivers. Outside of grub that is.
Why is anyone still using grub? This is on you at this point

Wow, great joke. 🙄
I don’t get it. Arch Linux is the butt of a joke because it’s Linux?
This has to be some sort of Dunning-Kruger effect right here…
Use endeavour if you’re new
Obs works fine for me, what’s the issue,?
People still play Apex?
