…oh, yeah I miss read that. I took it as don’t use arch for to long without reinstalling rather than don’t not update for too long. I update about once a week.

How long is to long? I’ve been running the same arch install for a few years and wondering if it supposed to be time for a reinstall?

*I also have backups of all my configs and read the arch news before updating so I’m not really that worried.

Other than they fit nicely into a pocket in my backpack…no. The main reason I love their product is the reparability aspect, allowing me to swap ports is just a neat feature.

I’ve had no issues that weren’t caused by me, but I also have a pretty minimal setup.

2 type c’s and 2 type A USB are in it 99% of the time. I have the HDMI, and display port modules but have rarely used them. I also keep the 2.5Gb Ethernet for when I break the WiFi to get back into the router, and a microsd for when I reflash my raspberry pi’s .

Intel 11th gen. I was in the first few batches when it came out and haven’t had a need to upgrade, but love that I can if needed.

I’ve heard great things about system76, never had one of their laptops myself but still have the desktop I got in 2011 (Wild Dog Pro). I personally use the frame.work 13, and it has been working great with Arch installed. I do not recommend Arch, use something like PopOS, or LinuxMint.
