Never have any problems with Arch Linux for a decade, the only one THE 
VERY BIG THING was systemd introducing. This cause "little" pain, mostly 
with bad rc scripts conversion to systemd units and overall third party 
software hickups with systemd. And that's it. All other things was 
purely third party software bugs and AUR maintainer fuckups :).

Just subscribe to Arch news (e.g. via RSS) and read them before 
updating. All neccessary manual actions will be there. And try to update 
your system at least once per week (I do it on saturdays with morning 
coffee).

Actually, I was surprised how systemd was made so good comparing to 
another software from same author - PulseAudio :).
