I get that. I’ve been using Arch on my laptop and have wanted to switch my gaming desktop over to Arch for a couple years now, but it already works well and I don’t want to go through the entire installation & set-up process again. It’s been on my rainy day list for all this time, but I always find better uses for my time. In your scenario it sounds like your current setup might not work well for you though, so perhaps just bite the bullet and go for it. If you back your home directory up somewhere then you can just copy that back over to the new home directory and that’ll at least save all your documents, pictures, and that sort of stuff.
