I’ve been using Arch for just over a year on my older Dell laptop, and have been regularly running sudo pacman -Syu
but not once have I had a problem or anything break. What am I doing wrong?
You do not use AUR enough
How would using the AUR help with stability?
(unless you’re being sarcastic, in which case an /s
might make things clearer)
AUR packages tend to break more often compared to repos ie. anything on AUR that utilizes python needs to be rebuilt if system python is updated.
I think they said that because OP wrote “not once have I had a problem or anything break. What am I doing wrong?” making it sound like the problem is that they haven’t experienced anything break yet.
