So i need to use USB tethering from my android… And im getting speeds around 2Mbps Down and 48Mbps Upload… When plugged to computer with windows the speeds are about 90Mbps any idea what can be the cause? I tried different cables and usb ports.
If you are dual-booting Windows, is windows completely shutdown, hibernation and fast boot disabled?
Please post some information about your system:

Please add swap space to your system - in your case a swapfile will be the viable option. Using swapfile with ext4 is straight forward.

but that has nothing to do with usb tethering
or?
When you ram is max’ed out and you have no swap - everything becomes slow.
The reason you see no issue on Windows is because your Windows system has swap as opposed to your Manjaro which you have deliberately excluded swap - it is an option when using automatic partitioning in the installer - or you have deliberately changed the system later - I cannot know that - what I can see is from your inxi output that you have no swap defined.
And no swap may indeed cause your network to slow down.
Nope, swap is not it. Still slow
