I’m very curious of which distro users loves the most that they have it on their daily hardware?

Good to know! I was considering switching back to Debian or Mint, maybe LMDE. I’ll look further into it. Thanks for the tip!

Try endeavoros and use flatpaks. That’s basically manjaro with the following differences:

  • current with the aur
  • doesn’t have a built in gui software installer
  • no modifications-it’s basically just arch with the things you would have probably installed

I was thinking of switching away from Arch and back to something Debian-based. I’ve never been a big fan of flatpaks (I have a background of not having fast internet or much storage space, it’s just stuck with me) and I never used the AUR anyways.

I mainly tried Manjaro to try the bleeding-edge life, and while I do enjoy having more up-to-date packages, I do miss being able to install DEB packages. I think I might try Debian testing and see how that goes.

I’ve effectively gone that route of moving away from Arch to Debian and although it hasn’t been without some minor inconveniences from not having the most up to date software, I’ve been really happy with the change. I try to avoid flatpaks and for the most part have been successful, with like 2 or 3 exceptions so even if you’re not much of a fan, I’d wager you’d be fine for the most part without them.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
