Specific reason why zsh is default in Manjaro x86 but not in Manjaro ARM?

[AB-Stromer]

hey,
before I try to change to my preferred shell, one general question to the experts:
is there any specific functional/technical reason for the decision to have zsh as default shell in Manjaro x86 but only bash in Manjaro ARM??

This may help you with the procedure as it is not really intuitive:

Changing default shell in kde

Welcome to the forum! The default Konsole profile is read-only in Manjaro. What you need to do is create a new profile, set this new profile as the default, and then you can edit that profile and set tcsh as the shell it must use.

I cannot answer the question, though.

We just like our regular old bash. You can still install zsh, fish or any shell you want. We just use bash as it’s reliable and people know it.
