Pretty much the title. Where’s the hate towards Manjaro coming from? I was pretty much a Ubuntu/Fedora user for years but never got too technical. Used almost always gnome, but recently got interested in tiling wm and have done some searches and stumbled upon the Manjaro Sway edition and everything works quite well, but I keep seeing people bashing on Manjaro and I don’t know exactly why. So if I were to use sway in Arch or Arco (way friendlier to install) if there any simple way to replicate the makeup sway default configuration?
Thank you all for your time.
They let their SSL certificate expire so many times that it became a meme. If I remember correctly it has happened four times.
Just set a fucking reminder lol.
I used to use Manjaro when I first transitioned to Linux from Windows. I think it’s okay. Their mission makes sense, when you consider the grub-crashing that happened a few months ago, Manjaro wasn’t affected.
I use arch because i like to do research mess with things and is fun, manjaro that’s what i would suggest anyone moving to Linux it’s just that good of a distro to use and mostly sre trolls so let them be.
I’ve never used Manjaro but the perception I get from it is that it is a noob friendly distro with good GUI and config (good) but then catastrophically fails when monkeying around with updates and the AUR. This is a pain for technical users and a back-to-Windows experience for the people it’s targeted towards. Overall, significantly worse than EndeavorOS or plain 'ol vanilla Arch Linux.
Lots of people hate it just because it’s popular and accessible. Some of them are trolls, some of them are being trolled.
All of them rely on lofty argument that have no real bearing for pragmatic use of the distro.
I love Manjaro :)
I tried it on pinephone and laptop. Both had 2 different updates break the OS. Both needed to be reinstalled each time.
Not worth it. Poor quality. Go arch or OpenSuse.
