No one is saying Arch is not stable, nor Garuda itself. The fact you stretched and strayed the points to infer this suggests you are trying to sideline the discussion, but you do you . 
@RodneyCK , for the most part I was not replying to you. I was replying to the people that stated and/or inferred that Arch is unstable. I don't recall you doing so.
My hackles always raise when someone does something like that. I saw plenty of that in the Manjaro forums, which I used to consider my home. Enough that I have never bothered to visit them since the last major forum breakage. I've seen it here, in these forums, a few times, too--in other threads, usually posted by people unfamiliar with it, who go by heresay.
But the whole libicu* stuff got me wondering, and that always requires further inspection. That's what I did with appmenu--I stated what I had discovered since it was pointed out to me that it was icu that provides libicu*
So please, I'm not trying to siderail anything or imply that Garuda is unstable. Help threads often devolve into discussion threads after a solution is found. Don't make my contribution anything but that. That was not what was intended.

Ah, so it’s YOU that’s unstable, thus relatively speaking Arch is super stable, thus when people call Arch unstable you must show people what unstable really means…

To me is good to see high level discussion where divergent opinions can talk, and improve with it. The truth is people do break things, no matter if users,developers. But having people engaged enough to fix it ... Is what "stable" means to me.
Unfortunately, this is not a discussion thread, it is a help request. I rarely ever close a thread for wandering off topic, but…
The first response on this thread was a request for the OP’s full specs. The OP has not done as requested by a moderator. The OP hasn’t even logged back in since they made this help request several days ago.
In all reality this was likely a post from a drive by distro hopper who has likely already wandered off to the fabled land of far greener pastures.
This thread has wandered way off topic and has become rather pointless without feedback from the threads originator. I will be locking this thread until the Original Poster (OP) returns and posts the computers inxi -Faz output.
The OP can add this and further information to the Opening Post by using the edit button on the first post on this thread.
