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?

Try run reflector
run0 reflector -l 10 -f 5 >> /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlistrun0 😤
I was waiting for this moment 😹😹😹
But I actually am using run0
I have no actual problem with it, the only reason I don't is that it's harder to type
That's true... But once you get used to it, you don't even notice that you write run0
Thanks—I am running the zen kernel because I didn’t really understand the question during archinstall, and have added an AUR helper but still no lack of joy.
I’ll definitely give this a go—probably on Friday afternoon.
I misunderstood your post. This command I told you is to make things better, not worse haha
If you really wanna make your Arch unstable, you may wanna install every single package with
pacman -Sy <packagename>Also maybe you wanna install everything from AUR
lol! There’s such a mix of people being genuinely helpful and people telling me the joke is past its sell-by date. But I hadn’t come across reflector before and will definitely give it a go—thanks :)
Please don't run arbitrary commands just because someone on the Internet told you to use them.
The arch wiki will tell you all you need to know and more.
