While this isn’t a deep article, darn it’s true and something I’ve been preaching for a while.
Summary: Arch isn’t a set it and leave it distro, it requires active maint.
TIL - Fluff Linux exists 
A quote from the article - “when mental intervention is required”. I’m assuming the writer meant “manual” but Arch has tempted me to make both mental and physical interventions at times 
You know…mental intervention makes a lot of sense, though I’m sure you’re right that he meant manual ;0
Pretend I did 30 minutes on the lack of proof-reading and editing these days…
Nitpicking aside (which is what we do best on this forum 
), the article is right, running Arch requires more time and energy than many distros.
I agree, that’s why I’ve frequently put it like this ‘The proper applicant for running an Arch-based distro is someone willing to learn.’ vs someone just wanting their PC to work.
In one of those screenshots, they clearly still use neofetch, a project that died more than two years ago. I can’t take them seriously 
/s
TL;DR;
Use Ubuntu (or Fedora (?))
I can install Arch and run without any issues so it can’t be hard.
However, I’m still trying to learn how to tie my shoelaces.
truth spoken 
Apparently I’ve been tying mine together. Perhaps that’s why I struggle through life. Linux helps me feel better.
It simply comes down to how much control you want vs how much control you are willing to give up.
It was lite reading and didn’t say much…he nursed a grudge against rolling release distros throughout the short article and I think that’s what his real problem is, not arch. I think Silverblue got some love here.
“Unless you’re switching to Linux precisely because you want to tinker more with your PC or you want granular control over how your system functions, Arch Linux likely isn’t for you, no matter the hype.” --conclusion seems over-simplified but his article exists to inform the newbie, as @dbarronoss accurately points out.
He makes Arch sound like LFS 
Arch is LFS for noobs
I thought that was Gentoo
Right, forgot about that one.
Rectification:
Archlinux: LFS for noobests
There are ways to mitigate this, such as by taking btrfs snapshots of your system that you can roll back to, but these are technical solutions for power users
Wow! Little did I know that to be able to backup your system you had to be “technical” as well as a “Power user”! 
Technically snapshots with boot support and rollback is somewhat more than just “backup”. I would bet that 99% of EOS users don’t set that up.
