Pretty much the title. Where’s the hate towards Manjaro coming from? I was pretty much a Ubuntu/Fedora user for years but never got too technical. Used almost always gnome, but recently got interested in tiling wm and have done some searches and stumbled upon the Manjaro Sway edition and everything works quite well, but I keep seeing people bashing on Manjaro and I don’t know exactly why. So if I were to use sway in Arch or Arco (way friendlier to install) if there any simple way to replicate the makeup sway default configuration?

Thank you all for your time.

    I used Manjaro for a while. Twice I had updates break stuff so thoroughly that I had to reinstall the OS entirely. The second time, I installed Pop OS instead and it’s been smooth sailing since.

      This is my experience with Manjaro. Really good OS, with gaming that tends to work out of the box, nice choices in UI environment. It’s great right up until it breaks.

      Now admittedly I’ve generally not used much Linux on desktop I have been using Linux on servers since the 1990s (the original redhat 5). But it took me a weekend to get the thing properly working again.

      That’s my manjaro experience.
