I’m between distros and looking for a new daily driver for my laptop. What are people daily driving these days? Are there any new cool things to try?
I have been using linux mint recently. I have used nixos and arch in the past. Personally, linux mint uses flatpacks too much for my liking. Although, I might have a warped perspective after using arch. (the aur is crazy big)
I will get hate from everyone over this, but I daily drive Manjaro because I can!
I know how to install Arch, I choose to use Manjaro.
I also used Manjaro and it broke on me multiple times. I did not realize how badly it was messing up the AUR until I switched. I use EndeavourOS now.
May I ask why you use Manjaro?
In my case it was because Ubuntu broke on me for whatever reason (and the threat of snap packages looming).
I did not feel like putting anymore effort into getting the computer back to working so I just switched to something not Ubuntuoid at semi random to anything that promised an easy installation.
A year later and it’s still working. I’ll notify you when it breaks so you can tell me “I told you so”.
me too, but i will switch to arch or nix soon. not because it broke, just to have a frash start. after 3+ years i have a shit load of stuff i don’t really need anymore
