Arch will have the packages first and I do love Arch, but it's not exactly a holistic, curated distro like Fedora.

Arch is not always the most up to date. Fedora and openSUSE occasionally beat it to an update. I've seen Fedora packages from git commits where Arch sticks with latest stable as well.

glibc and GNOME come to mind as frequent "not first" packages.

As a bigger thing, I think Fedora implemented systemd before Arch.
