Hello Shatizens,
Been a while. Hope all are doing well. Caught LGC 573 and the Manjaro hatin's.

I've been running Manjaro for, wow, quite a few years now. It's been super stable, more so than any other distro I ran while hopping around trying to find a good balance for myself.

- Rolling release means I'm very up to date, it rarely really breaks (3 times in maybe 6 years) 2 of those were due to the Nvidia blob crap.
- MWHD has been excellent (Manjaro Hardware detection) Often setting up hardware that I'd have to compile for myself on other distros.
- I'll admit to occasional updates that don't succeed, but don't break the app. You can usually skip that update package, wait the week or two for the Arch folks to figure it out and it gets fixed.
- Use AUR when I -have- to. AUR is okay (Anydesk, Sabnzbd, Spotify, Zoom (for work), a handful of others) But that's more likely to fail to update than any compiled Manjaro packages.
- Not having to compile most things is kinda nice. Updates are quick (except the AUR stuff)

I wouldn't say it's the most noob ready distro, but if you know a couple things and can read an Arch forum post without your brain exploding. It's a very nice experience.
