Never have I ever once had a problem after updating Arch Linux. I always had problems with Manjaro when I put it on my ex's computer because I thought it would be easier. Wrong. Stop using Manjaro. It's much lower quality than a serious distro.
That is a problem if you happen to have a nvidia GPU, and, as the article says, by nvidia forcing it, you will not be able to have that brand of customer gamer GPU anymore.
