One day several years ago I had to replace some hardware and the copy of Windows that I had installed decided that I was no longer authorized. I got fed up and left Windows behind for good. For a few years I had Manjaro installed, but eventually I needed a change and wanted to start fresh so opted just to go straight to Arch.
Arch here as well. For me it's rolling release that's the selling point. I've maintained the same arch install on my desktop for five years with minimal maintenance required. The only reason it's not ten years is I built a new PC and didn't carry forward my old root drive. Arch is much less work than is advertised once it's up and running. No dist upgrades or reinstalls when a new release comes out. Just keep it updated and pay attention to the website in case something requires manual intervention to update.
