Question: is there a reason to use arch over something like kubuntu, or ubuntu? It seems like a difficult starting point (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I want to point out that stable in this context doesn't necessarily mean less buggy but means that the system changes less.

Right, from my experience it means that you just have to wait much longer for the bug fix to reach your device. From PC perspective I like the rolling approach much more as I feel much more up to date with the software that I'm using especially when it's mostly foss where I browse the open issues and release notes on a regular basis
