My opinion on Manjaro seems unpopular, but I still like it. I daily-drive Manjaro happily.
It’s Arch that just works out of the box.
But most importantly, I already have it set up, and I am lazy. If it’s not broken (too much), don’t fix it.
My sister spent hours trying to play dvds on her new windows laptop ; I found her getting pissed off , turning to percussive maintenance, and starting to fill out a warranty claim on the dvd player . . .
It took about 15 minutes to download , flash (figure out how to change the sodding boot order) and run Manjaro installer/live usb stick to demonstrate how real computers can just do things like play dvds.
Manjaro is great for cases like that, since it works, is easy, and will have pretty well up to date kernel.
I mean don’t get me wrong, installing arch from scratch is a good fun and educational process and very nostalgic for the 1990s . . . but i’m not doing all that on my sister’s laptop just to demonstrate how shit windows is.
and i’m very grateful for valve doing it all for steamdeck.
