Gentoo vs Arch Linux
I switched from Arch to Gentoo because I ended up increasingly dependent upon AUR packages. That's not a big deal by itself, but I kept running into more and more frequent build failures with AUR packages that I couldn't sort out. This despite the fact that I used a very nice AUR package manager called Trizen. The final straw was when I started using hardware that, for some reason, didn't play well with Arch at install time but worked just fine with Gentoo.

Input audio delay in zoom but not in obs
As a side note, I use the trizen AUR helper program to install AUR packages because one of it's nice features over yay, etc, is that it by default shows the content of the PKGBUILD and any other files (patches etc) for an AUR package, so you can see or edit them before installing a package.
