you can say Manjaro is bad, completely fucked my system like twice then switched to endeavor, which is the spiritual successor to AntergOs https://endeavouros.com
Yeah, this, and I’m glad to see a level-headed response as to why Manjaro can sometimes be problematic. I would often see a site that listed reasons not to use Manjaro parroted on reddit and it was a fucking joke… like every point was either reaching or ridiculous.
But what you said is very reasonable. It is also why AUR is disabled by default and it is discouraged to use AUR in Manjaro unless you know exactly what you are doing. Because if you enable AUR in Manjaro there is a good chance that you will run into a dependency issue, and there is another chance that this dependency issues breaks your system.
With that said, I like Manjaro and have it installed on a couple systems. I think they have one of the best XFCE setups out of the box. And a few years ago when I got my new Legion 5 laptop, Manjaro was the only distro that the trackpad worked on. I tried Fedora and Ubuntu and Mint and PopOS, but none of them worked with it at the time.
Since Manjaro is forked from Arch, it would benefit from Arch’s updated drivers, right?

Arch actually has an installer again and it’s fantastic https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Archinstall
Ah fuck well you just determined the course of my weekend with this comment
