    I did mention both Tumbleweed and Arch so not sure what the problem is. Unless it’s that you just had to comment because you saw the word Manjaro.

    It’s very tiring to get this sort of comments at the mere mention of it, “hur dur manjaro.org didn’t renew their certificates” — which is not even relevant in any way for the distro since it’s not the distro maintainers managing the site. So it just comes out as stupid.

    If you don’t get the point of Manjaro you can just ask. All distros have a point, none of them exist just to be pointless and they definitely don’t rise to the top of Steam charts by being pointless.

    Manjaro serves a useful niche of people who would like a rolling distro but don’t want bleeding edge and the risks that to with it. Manjaro takes the unpredictability down a notch. It also includes all kinds of helpful management tools.

    I can apreciate that it’s not for everybody but some people find it useful and shitting on other people’s distro choices is crass. Especially if you don’t even know what point the distro serves, and especially in a thread about trying out new things.
