btw I use garuda, because I’m a real gaymer
Meh. I’ve been using Manjaro for two years now. So far so good. System has been working perfectly.
Congrats? But that doesn’t change the fact it’s shit.
Manjaro is without a doubt the worst arch derivative by far. Their whole marketing pitch is: “You heard that the arch repo has the most packages, and that they’re all fresh from the pipeline? Use manjaro, and replace it with a smaller one that delays updates by two weeks for absolutely no reason! You want to use arch because of AUR? Oh, the package failed to install because your system is weeks out of date? Tough shit, we’re not supporting AUR…”
It had a value in the time before archinstall, Endeavour, Arco, and Garuda. Each of them either only install arch with sane defaults, or provide some other benefits. Manjaro does neither, unless you count delaying security patches a benefit.
I use Mint, Arch (technically Asahi), Debian, Ubuntu, and I used to use Manjaro.
They all have their places. Mint has the best UI/stable no-fuss desktop experience, for instance.
Arch does not have a place though. It’s just a more buggy Arch with a worse maintaining team
EDIT: Actually, tbh it’s incorrect to even call Manjaro Arch. That’s an insult to Arch
Arch … [is] just a more buggy Arch
I know you meant to say Manjaro, but that’s a pretty funny take.
i was hopeful for manjaro. bad management for sure
Btw I use EndeavourOS xD
