Eventually, I got more busy and had less time to tinker, so I migrated to Ubuntu LTS, which has some small warts, but has needed practically null babysitting compared to Arch. I was surprised when the Arch memes resurfaced this year, but that's the only growth I've seen. None of my Linux-savvy peers use Arch, BTW.
I've had way more problems with Ubuntu trying to be convenient and bringing in lots of Windows-style automation that breaks more often than it works (and when that happens, you're really on your own since you have no idea how it's put together — just like in Windows).
Or even just bugs that were solved upstream ages ago (and have been available in every rolling-release distribution, including Debian testing/sid).
The current Arch installer suggests btrfs with snapper, so you get automatic snapshots pretty much out of the box (need to check one flag in installer), and can easily rollback if something breaks. Not something I needed, but it's there.
Personally I've been running Arch on my work machine for a few years now with very few issues. I'm not even very consistent with updates, and probably run them about once every 3 weeks on average. I have only had to manually intervene on a handful of occasions.
I like it a lot because everything is always up-to-date. I don't face any issues with unsupported versions for tools like I have with Debian in the past. The rolling release model also saves me the pain of doing a "hard" OS upgrade, which often come with issues.
