Just fun and games in Tumbleweed, I’d suggest doing the upgrade in cli or undoing all customisations as halfway through I got booted out of session to only be able to log into a half 5 half 6 KDE exspirence thank god for runner!

    If I don’t feel like complicating things I’ll just wait those 2-3 weeks? And how does Manjaro do it? If what I read online is right, they simply take Arch packages, wait a bit and then release them as is…

      They do more than that. They basically triage individual updates in a testing environment before enabling them in stable. I can keep my entire OS up to date with all the latest security updates while remaining in the latest KDE Plasma 5 version as long as Manjaro thinks version 6.x is not stable enough.

      To me that’s a huge advantage over Arch.

        Well, you can believe this or the thing I said. My experience with Manjaro were more along what I wrote, so the distro is dead for me. But if what you wrote is real they’d do basically what my today distro (Tumbleweed) does which is good.

          Well, that’s my experience as a Manjaro user on my daily home laptop for 3+ years. I’m really happy about it and can’t make sense of the criticism I’m reading about it.
