chaogomuI can honestly say that I ran Slackware as my daily driver for almost two years...
Never again.
Now I run easy distros. Much less stress overall.
ciko22i3I ran Slackware as my daily driver for almost two years
Why? …How?
Alethe CrowI miss playing with Slack. It was the first distro I ever got Steam running.
cfx_4188What a vucking great social network this Lemmy is.
I clicked “subscribe” to your community or whatever the vuck it’s called and for two weeks I’ve been looking at “Pending”. Is this such a vucking fediverse achievement that I don’t understand?
Now for the topic at hand. If you have to choose between Arch and Manjaro, you have to choose Arch. 100% none of you will need to thoroughly partition your hard drive, because none of you will bother moving /home to another partition on the drive. And the main difficulty will be setting up the wifi, solved by reading the man pages. Unfortunately they are without pictures, so you will have to work hard.
Manjaro has compromised itself so many times that I don’t understand people who use it.
Although no, I do understand you, my little friends. Manjaro has a graphic installer.
This post was in lemmy.world which is extremely overloaded at the moment
Its a known bug. Who knew reddit will fuck up?
Give it some time, it’ll be much better!
Give it some time I heard that story somewhere. It took Reddit fifteen years to become comfortable using it. Are you ready to wait?
Repositories is literally on fire now! Huge updates every day.
I’m an impulsive updater. I see an update, I update. Arch was able to change my plans for the day on many occasions into shiiiit I need this to work again so I can do actual work. So I compromised and installed Manjaro for edge but with less bleeding. YEAH😎
You’d be surprised. If you update on impulse, there is a great risk that pacman will break your system. There are clever people who don’t update Arch for half a year and then start upgrading it overnight. This is even worse, because the risk of your system dying from an accident increases many times over. Good thing I don’t use Arch btw for work. Although no, Arch+dwm is on my old netbook, but I can’t find it for a long time.
Debian Etch - Debian Squeeze then OpenBSD 5.5 - current
Clairvoidancenah don't worry, Manjaro users will tell you they use Manjaro
I feel attacked
Guys, why are you constantly making fun of arch. It really is a straightforward, stable and user friendly distro. The wiki is amazing and it’s very easy to find help even when you run into problems.
Oh, I use arch btw.
Miku Luna \ she/itI wouldn’t really call it stable, more just stable enough
In my 8 years of using Arch as daily driver, it has broken only couple of times for me, and usually I can find the fixes in the forums. Ubuntu on the other hand has lead to so much pain.
The only time I’ve had arch break is when I either was new and didn’t know what I was doing after not updating for months or I did something it told me probably wasn’t going to work.
I’m in this picture and I don’t like it.
Margot RobbieNo, I don’t use 2 weeks late Arch. To me that just defeats the point.
I use Arch btw.
Lmao I feel personally attacked

EmiManjaro Users: I could never be bothered to follow the steps for installing on the arch wiki.
Manjaro Users When Something Breaks: Gotta go check the arch wiki & forums.
I recommend Evdeavouros instead of Manjaro ;)

Subtle way to call manjaro users gay
