Ah just unlucky timing then, is there a time of day/week you recommend updating to avoid such issues?

Good question; Artix is a rolling distro, so some extra care is needed like eg. the ability to downgrade like you did.
What might help a bit is when pacman -Syu wants to update some packages from crucial groups is to answer 'n' to not install them yet but wait an hour or so before running it again.

Hey guys I'm still getting dependency warnings when I try to update:

Code: [Select]
warning: dependency cycle detected:
warning: qt6-multimedia-ffmpeg will be installed before its qt6-multimedia dependency
warning: dependency cycle detected:
warning: plasma-x11-session will be installed before its plasma-workspace dependency
warning: dependency cycle detected:
warning: xdg-desktop-portal-kde will be installed before its plasma-workspace dependency

I'm postponing the update for a 3-4 days already

EDIT: Nevermind I just installed dependencies, haha sorry
