I use Arch for years and can't say it's as good as it used to be. But I still use it since alternatives have bigger issues. and actually I would say there is no "good" distro yet. In my opinion, "good software" is the one that provides well modularized abstractions that connect to life easily and inexpensively, and can be reused by other software fully or partially.
We need an OS with declarative system directories, commands and configuration files based on a minimalist, human-friendly vocabulary and with good hardware support. It's 2013 and Linux is supposed to achieve some good abstraction levels that let people save time instead of reading fucking manuals. We should encourage good abstractions that document itself and communicates with the users. Linux systems don't talk English and they don't connect to real world easily.
Maintaining personal computers should not be expensive. If we're passionate about programming and systems, our goal should be to create good abstractions that connect to life.
