Try Endeavour OS. You only need to do ******* to turn Endeavour into Arch.

10 minutes, that's the time i need to configure my system from A to Z, and after that all i do most of the time is updating it.

Yeah, it is obvious hyperbole.

We all have different definitions of "working system". I call a first time boot into alpine linux (after installing docs and ditching busybox) or openbsd a fully working system.

I installed arch last night in less than 20 minutes. The longest part was figuring out how to connect WiFi from the terminal. But I googled it and it was easy.

[–] [email protected] 31 points 3 months ago

I didn't spend 20 minutes setting up Arch.

Immediately get to work with Manjaro✅

Imagine using an arch based distro that dies on try using the AUR lol, why even bother?

I'm a Linux noob, using Manjo for almost two years no prob One time an update needed manual intervention and I've fucked it up. But afaik on Arch this also happens so 🤷‍♂️

Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Manjaro is usable, but you might want to use something else

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.

Never happened to me again since I use Arch and endeavorOS 🤷🏻‍♀️

1.It doesn't die

2.The issue is blown super out of proportion

3.Arch is more than AUR. It's a bleeding edge, very lightweight distro. And both characteristics go into Manjaro - granted, there's a two week review period and some stuff installed on top. At the end, you get a super snappy, super nice system with a lot of value added on top of it.

Well it died on me twice and then I gave up 😂

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

Died on me too, randomly stopped receiving package updates..

until it violently shits itself
