Daily driver since 2011 or sometime around then.
Rolling release, it is all handled by `pacman -Syu`
Do that as often as you feel the need. Or before opening a ticket with
Arch, that's the #1 thing to do with them.
Kernel switching? As in upgrades? As in having multiple kernels
installed and switching between them?
snap and flatpack, well I flatpack on my Laptop, and Pop!_OS, where I
want to date versions of the software. In Arch, it is always the most
recent.
I took a look at Manjaro. It seems like the install includes a desktop
environment (xfce, KDE-Plasma, ...) that will get you going faster on
the system.

Arch seems very modern with its rolling release, ability to switch kernels
on the fly and snap, flatpak support. I understand all of these things
conceptually but I have no day to day real world experience,
I intend to wade into the shallow end with a trial of Manjaro, but I'm
curious if there are any daily driver Arch users who can speak to the use
of the kernel switching, rolling releases and snap, flatpak features.
Thank you in advance.
