I’ve seen a lot of people who quite dislike Manjaro, and I’m not really sure why. I’m myself am not a Manjaro user, but I did use it for quite a while and enjoyed my experienced, as it felt almost ready out of the box. I’m not here to judge, just wanted to hear the opinion of the community on the matter. Thanks!

    Manjaro is what got me into Arch

    Is Manjaro even considered an Arch? I though it’s Arch based. Maybe I’m wrong

      It is. It’s so close that you can out of the box use arch package manager to install packages.
      And manjaro package management is technically the same. Just slowed down a little bit.

      You could say that arch is “testing” and manjaro “stable”.
      Although arch is very stable in itself, don’t think of it as of Gentoo Unstable.
      Rather “manjaro will have the newest kernel after a few months, not tomorrow”
