For me the rolling release model of Arch makes it not the most suitable distro for development, lately I had to fight with the openssl upgrade to 1.1.0 because some rust libs I used no longer worked. Downgrading is not an option for pacman, so I had to resort to compiling on docker containers and that's not the most comfortable dev environment. I'm gonna migrate to NixOS or GuixSD this weekend, the package managers they have are really a breakthrough to package management.
