This is literally why I stopped using Manjaro.
Iβve botched 2 Manjaro installs just doing a pacman -Syu while their certs were expired and I ended up with an incomplete upgrade.
Never once had this issue with EndeavorOS.

I jumped ship after 2 times. Such a shame because I loved the OS but this is the opposite of what I expect a distro to do.
Holy shit this is so stupid I can't defend them anymore ππ
Again????? Again???????????
Why isnβt this an automated processs for them?
At this point... Why aren't Linux users tracking the certificate and notify them?
"floorp", really? lol thats the name?
Is there a running tally somehwere? I need something like the credible defense guys' "0 days since airplane dropped in oceans"
some iconic duos in the Linux community: Arch and AUR malware, Ubuntu and bad updates, NixOS and community/team members leaving, Manjaro and failing to renew its cert.
you forgot the oldest of them all, Debian and the its museum, their repos
Welcome to Linux, do you want the BenevolentDictatorOS, WeaponsManifaturerOS, MalwareOS or Debian?
Ubuntu and bad updates
This is the only drama in your list I'm not familiar with already. What/when did they last break?
Recently, the nvidia-dkms driver updates wouldn't build for 5.x series kernels, so if you hadn't cleaned up old kernels, the update bombed out before updating the initrd filesystem, the system couldn't boot without intervention. Thankfully, I noticed before trying to reboot my work desktop, and the solution was "apt autoremove && apt upgrade".
But the install media for my desktop at home was 18.04, and it's running 26.04 now. It has an AMD GPU, so it hasn't had update problems.
Manjaro once again demonstrating they're not a serious distro/project, hahaha
HOW THE FUCK DID THEY MANAGE IT AGAIN
oh my god AGAIN?!
I like a distro with problems that I can relate to.
A little stability and consistency in the world, manjaro always delivers when it comes to this.
just install certbot + a daily cron
The funniest thing about this is that it needs a single Bash script and a cronjob to solve (unless they got a REALLY bad hoster).
That bash script probably exists a bazillion times already⦠so even an LLM could spit it out for them.
Their organisational structure must be abhorrent for nobody to feel even remotely responsible for this.
Most web server have ACME support built-in nowadays, setup is a matter of minutes, no scripting required. This has been a solved problem for years, any sysadmin who can't handle this basic task has no business running public-facing servers.
Yeah, caddy automatically renews certs by default, as does traefik as far as i can tell, and certbot installs a timer for this.
