for some reason people in the comments got really triggered bc of this meme… i was just saying that when my screen flickers i need to update my Nvidia rtx drivers and the FNAF 3 screen looks kind of like a terminal

Arch is just the most popular one where that would happen. Most distros don’t have that issue; it’s an artifact of the simplistic packaging that Arch uses.
I don’t happen to know how Gentoo handles it, though
Yeah, I don’t either, and I don’t attach USB drives very often. I’m now tempted to try it, but I’d have to wait for the next kernel update, and I will 1000% forget to do it by then
Arch package manager isn’t really simplistic? Maintainers can mitigate this easily, just goes counter arch philosophy.
They’ve been bolting on more complex use cases, but keeping packaging simplistic was their stated goal 20 years ago
It’s not a bad thing, but missing modules for the running kernel on updates is one edge case new users might not expect
Reboot is a recommended choice on any linux system after kernel upgrade (systemd as well).
It’s not a simple package manager and it can do a lot, not on the level of zypper but it’s pretty complete. There are some intentional limitations, true.
