  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    Go for EndeavorOS without shame if all you want is an Arch-like system, without the hassle.

    Cue the zealots screaming β€œEndeavor is not Arch!”

    Endeavour is Arch (mostly), Manjaro isn't Arch.

    I love your comment because I've been told the opposite. That Manjaro is Arch but Endeavour is not. I've also been told that neither is Arch. And I've been told that both are Arch.

    The thing is, I don't care.

    I don't understand how people think Manjaro is more Arch than Endeavour.

    [–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

    Because that's the bullshit Manjaro promotes by giving pre-installed access to the arch user repository and pretending that they are just delaying arch updates by two weeks for additional stability checks.

    That the whole concept of additional two weeks is bullshit if you don't do work in that time frame and just delay everything (even critical fixes) and AUR+outdated Arch is your ticket straight to dependency hell is what makes makes Manjaro bad.

    That they then also managed to DDOS the AUR for everyone adds to their likability from the Arch perspective.

    So in the end Manjaro is damaged Arch and Endeavour is an Arch-derivate. Which one is closer to Arch (technically it's Manjaro) is irrelevant, because one isn't even a properly working distribution.

    Manjaro is Arch and Endeavour is not

    So if Manjaro is Arch, I should be able to get daily updates and use the AUR without a problem, right?

    ....right?

    Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

    Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

    I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.

    Did you break the arch installs trying to install arch from scratch?

    [–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)
