Today I talk about the most overrated Linux distros. Be prepared for some circular reasoning. 👇 PULL IT DOWN FOR THE GOOD STUFF 👇Ko-fi - https://ko-fi.com/...
Seeing a lot of Manjaro here, what’s the deal?
I installed it just yesterday on a test machine to check it out as I plan on steering over from windows long-term so just browsing what’s out there. Don’t really have issues and it ticks the boxes of a more user-friendly installation and comes out of the box with Plasma. I may try out pure Arch or the GUI fork just not to have the hassle of setting up the DE
Manjaro is a really good distro to start with. It has very nice defaults including the correct zsh plugins.
Should make your transition to Arch whenever the time comes very smooth.
It does have a bad reputation because they don’t seem to manage it well (e.g. keys keep expiring), and the said defaults are implemented in a very hacky way (if you see the code).
Also they follow a delayed release which is really unnecessary given Arch is stable already; and in fact the delay can cause issues if you use AUR (which you will, eventually discover and learn about and love).

On top of what other already said they accidentally DDOS’d the Aur repos and took it down for couple hours one time.
Hmmm.
