And yet I’ve never had an apt upgrade break my whole system.

Define 'Break'... /j

Unable to boot after the update. That’s happened to me multiple times with pacman, so I eventually switched to Fedora.

@hperrin@lemmy.ca Interesting, how?
On artix I update system and nothing breake my system.

No idea. I updated it, and then it wouldn’t boot. So, I reinstalled.

For me it was that it said "forcing this upgrade may break your system, do you want to force the upgrade?"

And I was like "yeah, fuck it", then installed mint after my system didn't come back up (it was time for my annual re-install anyway)

This is a recent example of a problem that required manual intervention or the system would not boot after updates. This happens every now and then on arch, it's why you should check arch news before updating.
