I grew tired of shitty “Top 10 Linux distros in ${CURRENT_YEAR}” articles so I wrote a blogpost, that I would personally consider helpful when I was starting out, so I can simply link it to people when they ask my opinion on a beginner distro.

Objective criticism is welcome and encouraged.

    It’s really sad that Manjaro has had those little issues. When it works it’s such a nice distro. I recommended it and a few other distros to several people back before I knew about the issues with Manjaro, and of the ones I recommended (Mint, Pop OS, Ubuntu, and Manjaro) it was definitely the consistent favorite of everyone that tried it.

    They definitely know how to turn the Linux desktop experience into a nice one, and if they could make Pamac less buggy, stop DDISing the AUR and letting their certificates expire, and maybe ditch the whole two week delay thing that breaks AUR dependencies, it’d probably be the best new user distro.
