Upgrading to 18.04 broke like everything for me (kde, wm, graphics
drivers), it's what single-handedly drove me to arch, so ymmv.
My experience with arch hasn't been much better of late, so take it for
what you will. Arch updates blew up my desktop, and my laptop I'm afraid
to reboot as my last working device. If I didn't hate windoze so much, I
might actually try it again, but it's performance on my xps15 was absolute
shite with the 4k display. Like mouse lag randomly just to screw with me
and slow down everything working.
