I think in the day when desktop Linux was jankier and you had to tweak things a lot to get them to work well it was more beneficial to have a distro where you just compiled everything from source anyways. Now it is anachronistic, IMO.

Wayland has way more compatibility issues especially with other Linux stuff lol
I hardly ever read the news and I update like once every one to two weeks, and I’m not sure I’ve ever had a system breaking bug introduced by an update. I’ve had small bugs that break UI stuff but nothing that really impairs my ability to use the computer.
I have run into all sorts of weird issues trying to run games or programs not packaged to run on Arch but those are usually solvable with tinkering and some outside advice.
Arch has just never really felt inherently unstable to me, IMO. If you have patience for tinkering and customizing Arch is a great distro that gives you a ton of control over your system + has a fantastic body of documentation.
