It has the freshest packages, ahead of all distros

Let me introduce you to Nixpkgs. Its packages are "fresher" than Arch's by a large margin. Even on stable channels.

Not gonna lie, this whole debacle made want to switch to NixOS.
Immediately rolling back to an uncompromised version was my first thought.
That and the fact that each application is isolated from each other right? Should hopefully help in cases like this
