Who knows, maybe I will, maybe I will donate my entire project to Manjaro.
That’s what you should do!
Do I get a free beer?
“Do I get a free beer?”
(sigh)
Edit: OK…
EOT from me anyway, good luck.
That was meant to be an ice breaker, now that we have assaulted each other, we can be friends.
Welcome from another Mint to Manjaro Cinnamon switcher! I found Manjaro to be noticeably faster than Mint on both my desktop and laptop. I also like the rolling release. It works well, as long as you don’t get too creative with odd ball modifications.
I have a spare HDD lying around, I will put it in a laptop, install Manjaro and give it a good spin. No doubt I will have more questions, but I will start new topics when ready.
I will close this topic and mark it as ‘Solved’ Thanks all for your comment/advice.
I started off with Mint 18 cinn. edition . Then I found Manjaro Cinn. and I never went back . Manjaro is faster and just as stable as Mint , and allows better support for newer hardware .
Downside of Manjaro is steeper learning curve , and being a rolling distro things are more likely to break , not a lot but sometimes .
I just went thru a update not too long ago that involved trying to upgrade the kernel and NVIDIA drivers , it refused to upgrade , found out I had to uninstall the graphic driver , then upgrade , then reinstall the graphic drivers with out rebooting .
The package manager in manjaro is way better
As far as apps , basically what is in Mint is available in Manjaro
Yes, I still have a Mint snapshot (19.3 Tricia) from May 2020. After that a Manjaro Cinnamon, then Manjaro KDE - wow, and got stuck on KDE because it suddenly became AWESOME after loving Cinnamon to get away from the Gnome-KDE madness of the past.
Don’t skip a KDE trial.
I find with Manjaro, my WiFi is also more powerful…
