My shiny new Arch install uses grub2, so you don't need a separate /boot partition! It can read the kernel straight out of an LVM partition.
grub2 is a little bit bigger though, so I had to repartition give it 2MiB at the beginning of the disk. Everything gets bigger over time.

It's a small thing, but I'm much happier with --version in the latest version of difftastic.
It shows the release number and the commit date. This gives you a reproducible build with age info.
It also shows OS, arch and compiler, because those are useful in bug reports.

I've been really enjoying paru as a pacman substitute on Arch Linux: https://github.com/Morganamilo/paru
It allows you to update both normal and AUR packages in one go, which is super convenient. It also shows you PKGBUILD files, so there's still a human audit step for AUR.
