He is right. Arch is the best for personal use. But for servers you need stability.

He is right, that's why I used Slackware.

The only thing that sucks about using Arch - is the lack of a software store and the insane complexity of installing packages.

Stating that Arch Linux is a nice distro that is fine only as a “hobby system”, while Debian should be used for professional use, is inaccurate and misleading. Debian can be used for servers, however if Linux is used, for example, for professional data analysis, Arch Linux is the best choice, better than any other distro (sorry, Ubuntu users), and more appropriate than macOS or Windows.
