Hey, i wondered how i could cross-compile with gcc from linux for a windows machine, and how reliable is cross-compiling?

Mingw-gcc exists as a linux package precisely to allow you to compile stuff for windows. As for reliability, it should be as reliable as any other sort of compilation.

What OS do you use? I use a gentoo offshoot which has a tool to set up the right environment.
You just have to compile it to build for windows and isolate it from the usual gcc(usually by location and name)

I use archlinux 64 bit

Then the only way I know is to manually compile it. Qwerty probably can help you more.

i'm trying mingw right now, archlinux says it is installed but idk how to use it as it isn't in /usr/bin

MinGW gets stored in a directory that you set... at least that's how it works on windows

You want cross-compiling? USE JAVA!!!

* pimathbrainiac runs
