There’s a lot of Manjaro hate from people who’ve never actually used it as their daily driver and are just parroting what other people online are saying.
You first insinuate people who bash it, don’t use it, I’ve made it clear I did with clear examples. Now it’s on to blaming the user or expecting users to invest hours and hours to troubleshoot borked installs. Breaking software isn’t, and shouldn’t be the norm. I’ve never had it with Mint or Kubuntu, and before you throw a point about it being rolling distros are more up to date, I’ve been using OpenSuse Tumbleweed for over a year without issue. It hasn’t borked once. Failure rate on Manjaro is higher and when you dig into how they operate, there are clear reasons why.
It seems you were very lucky in your Manjaro days, and now because you somehow avoided getting run over crossing the motorway blindfolded, you think everyone’s experience is like yours.
There isn’t a hate bandwagon, and you don’t need to defend their honour. They are not a sports team you cheer on. They are a software project, and need to improve. You defending poor work just enables it.
The fact you raised points, they were disputed and you moved on to separate points to fit in with the theme of “Manjaro good”, you’re coming across as a Manjaro shill.
