I’m having problems with Manjaro again, always after those big updates. Anyway, I’m moving from Manjaro since it seems it will not work (authorization isn’t working properly). I already tried Ubuntu before (used it for 3 months), but moved on since file management in Ubuntu is pretty bad (had to use terminal to copy files and format drives because system wouldn’t recognize me as administrator). I’ve been using Manjaro for 4 months and it’s really good, the update problems ruin it.

Anyway, I was thinking of moving on to something like Linux Mint, Debian or Fedora. I wanted something with support and with people that care for the code. What do you guys suggest? I ask because I don’t want to encounter another distro changing problem with my next distro.

      Same situation here, Manjaro for 4 years or so without issues. A couple of times the repo keys gave problems, but I always found the solution online quickly.

      Avoid AUR as much as possible, and the system is quite stable, in my experience.

      People complain about system problems after updating on the Manjaro forums. I don’t think I’m the only one having these problems.

      I installed some things on AUR, but I don’t think I went too obscure. The most obscure things I downloaded were Debtap and text to speech programs. I also installed some bash programs.

        I’ve been using Manjaro for a while now and haven’t had problems. 🤔
