I am a Linux noobie and have only used Mint for around six months now. While I have definitely learned a lot, I don’t have the time to always be doing crazy power user stuff and just want something that works out of the box. While I love Mint, I want to try out other decently easy to use distros as well, specifically not based on Ubuntu, so no Pop OS. Is Manjaro a possibly good distro for me to check out?
I meant manually from the cli. I’m not aware of any GUI tools having support for the special LVM features either.
I’m not talking about GUI tools, I’m talking about package manager integration. On openSUSE, if I do a
zypper upgrade, it’ll create a BTRFS snapshot so I don’t need to think about it. It goes a step further and adds it to a few other commands too AFAIK, so there’s a good chance that I’ll have a recent snapshot for / if a configuration change broke something.If a popular distro automatically configures LVM snapshots, I’d expect more regular desktop users to be aware if it. AFAIK, none do, so it seems like something only server admins would know about.
