From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Manjaro is the closest thing to Windows you're going to get.
I recommend it with KDE.
Because it sucks? 🙃
Like, seriously, Manjaro had so many problems already that were completely preventable, makes stupid mistakes, bloats itself up with nonsense and provides no stability improvement over Arch whatsoever (which is a bad thing). On the contrary, it apparently even introduces additional bugs.
I'm not surprised they accidentally DDoS'ed the AUR, given they also have a docker script that spins up every single time an image is downloaded to push a change to git to increment a counter. Every. Single. Time. A full docker container. From scratch.
I'd only ever recommend Manjaro to people I really don't like.
Please. Get a life.
lol
You're doing a good job fitting in with your peers.
Mission accomplished.
Manjaro has also DDoS'd the AUR several times and is known for not keeping their certs up to date.
Say no to manjaro https://github.com/arindas/manjarno
sigh... Stop beating a dead horse. I've been using Manjaro since 2022 with absolutely no problems.
Get over it!
Pretty sure that hasn't been an issue for years.
Linux Mint's website was hacked and they served a malicious ISO, but the useful idiot crowd never talks about that.
The snowball effect is real, and if you can't see it then you're probably a part of it.
No one hates endeavouros yet it makes arch Linux easy to use. I don't see why endevouros isn't the better choice over manjaro.
