I graduated college recently & currently work at a random software development company (I hate it because it forces its employees to use Windows).
I like C++, Java & Python. I have always loved Linux because of its development-centric ideology. I love Manjaro more than others because of its amazing amalgamation of user-friendliness for noobies & absolute power it bestows upon experienced users.
Would love to learn as much linux as possible from here.
been using Linux since '90s to enjoy something different from Winzozz
I played around very first releases of Slax, Ubuntu, OpenSUSE and then Mint, Kali and now I found this awesome Manjaro
I also worked on hackintosh āfirst waveā (chameleon EFI boot)
I use now Linux at work on digital forensic field
Stay rock!
Ciao

Hey,
I am 15 and been dabbling with linux for a bit now.
I first got it because windows crashed some games i played and i kinda stuck with dual booting.
I am also a gamer and learning 3D-Art
I started using Linux with Slackware back in 1995, and by 1998 I was using Linux exclusively. I switched to Debian in 1999, and then to Ubuntu in 2005. After that, I experimented with several distros before settling into Arch Linux a few years ago. Just this year I decided to give Manjaro a try, and itās already become my main system.
Hi everyone, Emmanuel here, from Mexico. My main OS is Windows for work reasons but, i start with Linux for personal job projects. Begin with OpenSUSE, and Fedora later. The last weekend install Manjaro and I love it. It“s a great efficient and pretty OS.
Hello
Iām 18 and been using for debian based linux for quite a long time and started using manjaro for half a year now.
It is quite recent for me to completely switch from windows to GNU/Linux due to how windows got laggier and laggier.
Iāve been always an enthusiast for computers and operating systems but donāt have talent on programming side.
Nice to meet you everyone and Iāll be appreciated for all the tips and troubleshootings!
Iāve been running Linux systems for about 20 years now. Most of my experience is with servers where I really get at the guts of the system to customize it for what I need it to do. Iāve been running Linux on the desktop on and off throughout that time and made the final switch about 3 years ago and said goodbye to Windows forever at home.
I chose Manjaro because itās easy to use and after engineering solutions all day at work (network/voice/security are my main focus now), I like to relax at home. Plus I can see when a project has a passionate developer team in how itās built and Manjaro definitely has that going for it so here I am. Iāve been using Manjaro for a while now so I figured it was time to hop on the forums and look around.
Hello, everyone! I have used Windows for a few years, but since I got my PC I dual-booted win11 with Linux Mint(tho I mostly used windows). However, recently I bricked that install but I wanted to kind of mess around more with linux, so I installed Manjaro, too. So far, my experience has been painless(apart from problems that I caused), and Iāve decided to use Manjaro as my daily driver. I even installed it on my Raspberry Pi(in case I want to try a sensitive tweak that could brick my pc if I tried it there).
Saludos camaradas! Jorge from Mexico here, just tried to have Windows and Linux this change of year, but something went wrong, so iāve decided to migrate totally to Linux, and it has been hard, but now iām very happy! just a few sacrifices have been made and a LOT to win, very happy even with the sudden problems with some programs, but now iām very connected with the community, and thatās awesome too! Open Source mindset rules!
Thanks to Blender and a friend (eBarranco), changed from Adobe, Microsoft and Autodesk to open source in all my digital art and videogames pipelines, started with Ubuntu but then changed to Manjaro, so far, a good decision i think
Hello everyone!
Iām cyber, a European cyber security and Linux fanatic. My PC is running Arch Linux and I am planning to install Manjaro on my laptop now, as I need it for work and thus it has to be stable (even though my Arch is stable most of the time).
I installed Manjaro with Deepin on my laptop yesterday and had some problems post install (it wouldnāt boot after pacman -Syu) and therefore I hope to find some answers on here. Right now I run a basic Debian install on my laptop, as I need it for work today, but I am planning to attempt to install Manjaro again this afternoon.
Other than that I also hope to be able to become a part of this community and help other people out with their problems. Manjaro seems like an awesome distribution and I am looking forward to using it for work everyday. Thanks to the whole Manjaro team and community for making this possible!
Howdy!
Longtime Iphone/Windows PC user. I decided enough is enough watching the mass censorship take place across the Western world. I have since switched 3 household computers to Mint, and my mobile to a Pinephone running Manjaro Phosh.
I will say as a new user, there is still some refining to do to get the rest of the world onboard but it is close. I wish I had done more, earlier to protect freedom for myself and my fellow citizens but at least I am here now. It feels good to be apart of something good.
Iām registering here simply to post feedback with Manjaro after i re-discovered Ventoy, itself a consecutive step once i learned about Slackwareās fresh new update, reputed to be stable after quite some long wait. The laptop is a transformable (detacheable keyboard) with an ia32 boot-loader but a 64-bits processor⦠Previous attemps never felt as appropriate before compared to this one, so iāll stick with it if it holds and doesnāt auto-destruct like iāve observed with Debian-based distros that didnāt survive an update.
To add to this appreciation iād equally wish to suggest integration of language & keyboard layout right from the very begining at the GrUB2 stage, similar to antiX when it boots (but without the glitches afterward).
Well⦠Something wrong with TV via an HDHomeRun tuner, VLC wonāt show nothing but 2 thirds blank/black video and the rest is frozen garble, so i gather support packages are missing which i must identify 1st then eventually install. Audacious find the DLNA server but plays audio only.
Too bad, the tablet had some fair responsivity for diaporama & other video playback. Relatively to this it seemed i had gained some improvement over LUbuntu/Linuxium without much apparent limitations during installation, while BT wireless headphones work fine. Iāll bet itās another proprietary thing, just dunno for sure! It may be necessary to search for more āstuffā laterā¦
Appologies, this wonāt stick finally. I gave it the whole eMMC unit, tried with and without a swap partition. To no end, as i recall video playback wasnāt stable even for local drive files, while installing āSMPlayerā only confirmed a change of application wouldnāt quite suffice, etc. So i gave up on this other Linux install, grateful that it managed at least to boot and even install, though not without some glitches IMO, and a lack of the āHardInfoā utility remained an issue as i canāt even hope to make comparisons when i got a few candidates to compare. Hoping after a few more revisions it wonāt be a problem choosing a Linux flavour anymore, possibly in days when a boot-loading mechanism similar to Ventoy is made standard, to bridge the gap with Atom/CherryTail hybrids with a 32-bits boot-loading procedure but a 64-bits processor, implicitely searching for 'ābootia32.efiā, etc.
Too bad, re-reading my notes i find āBingo!ā somewhere, relatively to AMIās 2016 Aptio Setup Utilityā, but that was early. Thanks at least for providing a fair experience discovering Ventoy - after trying YUMi-UEFi in vain.
Keep busting those little gremlins for the rest of us whoād rather not even contemplate an attempt⦠Ideally it should look 'n feel ready for a grandma and her antiquated computer artifact, and it,s free after all.
Hi, Iām experimenting Manjaro for few months now. I have migrated all my paperwork in a VM. I love it. Eventually I will install Manjaro on a laptop.
I use Windows at work. We are experimenting a lot of problems. To me, Manjaro is more reliable.
About 20 years ago Iāve started with Ubuntu. Iāve changed to Linux Mint for about 18 years⦠(getting old lol) Over time Iāve implemented Linux on at least about a dozen computers, but at the end I was tired to modify them according to the same pattern. My first idea was building Linux from the ground up, Arch Linux, but I donāt have much time to invest on that project for now. Manjaro is a good choice I think. Iāve compared Manjaro to PopOS and a third one. On my VM PopOS was buggy, the third one was more a work in progress and Manjaro was the only robust os.
Hy everyone, the name is Stefan and Iām the new guy.
Switched to Manjaro KDE this week because I wanted to leave Microsoft for goodā¦
Excited to learn much about Linux now =)
Hello! I am recently retired from a support role in the IT department of a relatively large corporation. Now with time on my hands, Iād like to investigate Linux - Manjaro - as Windows becomes more and more intrusive and bloated.
My user name, MajorPITA, comes from a conversation with my spouse. We were talking about military careers and I said that I would want to be an officer. It was suggested that I attain the rank of Major so that I could be called āMajor PITA!ā
My first question here will be regarding getting Manjaro to SEE my NVMe M.2 drives so that I can install in a Dual-Boot with Win11. (Iām hoping that I can inject the Intel drivers into the distro ISO.)
Anyway, Iām looking forward to working with Manjaro once I can get past the installation! Best Regards!
