I don't feel gated at all by my linux installation. If I want I can customize everything, but at least I don't have to deal with a thousand installers and update processes on a day by day basis.

I am using pacman since over 10 years, only used apt and dnf for a couple of weeks.
Yes, also on servers I run arch... let's me sleep better :)
