    Manjaro has been bizarrely good at getting hardware partners on board. Pine64 (think pinephone, pinetab, SBCs), MinisForum, Slimbook, Tuxedo, etc.

    If only they were properly run in other areas.

      It’s literally the distro that stopped my distro hopping. Manjaro’s freaking fantastic.

        For me it was my gateway to Endeavour, I had Manjaro set up in a way that satisfied my every need and want.

        But having to timeshift my system back into a bootable state after a borked update wave every few months was bad enough to kick me out of my complacency, and go looking for something else.

          That’s relatable pain. So far I’ve had a stable 5ish years, and only had 2 issues, one being my own tomfoolery with some KDE config, the other being Nvidia, and I don’t gotta tell you kids about Nvidia and Linux, regardless of distro…

          ETA: endeavour looks really slick too, thx for broadening my world. Probably need to justify a wipe of a laptop to try that out.
