  • Manjaro is a really good distro to start with. It has very nice defaults including the correct zsh plugins. Should make your transition to Arch whenever the time comes very smooth. It does have a bad reputation because they don’t seem to manage it well (e.g. keys keep expiring), and the said defaults are implemented in a very hacky way (if you see the code). Also they follow a delayed release which is really unnecessary given Arch is stable already; and in fact the delay can cause issues if you use AUR (which you will, eventually discover and learn about and love).






  • Search for “how to install Firefox in Arch”. Snapstore page which asks you to first install snap from AUR, and then install Firefox through Snap is the second entry, I kid you not!

    And they have same pages for Fedora erc.

    This predatory behavior is to try and get any potential new Linux users to use their crapstore instead of their distro’s package is disgusting and malicious.
