Welcome and introduce yourself - 2024

Stefan here, diving into the Manjaro community with a big ol’ grin on my face! I’ve been dancing around the Linux scene for quite some time, but I’ve finally found my way to Manjaro, and I’m buzzing with excitement :sweat_smile:

I’ve always had a soft spot for the freedom and creativity that Linux brings to the table and can’t wait to swap stories, share tips, and maybe even cook up some code together

That’s… nerd-slang, isn’t it? :wink:

Actually, I don’t think so. The first time I heard it was in The Fast and the Furious (1 or 2, I can’t remeber.)

It is actually originally not nerd-slang. I don’t know what kind of slang it is, but it actually means:

To rice, or to soup up a crappy car…

Urban Dictionary: ricing

HI all, this is Alfonso.

Waddup all,

I have been using Manjaro for over 4 years now as my daily OS. Love that it is an arch based distro without the overhead of managing every small system detail. Big thanks to all the Manjaro-Team for a seamless experience!

Hello!
I have used openSUSE so far. A few years ago, my son really wanted to play games on the PC, so we installed Manjaro. We were happy with it and now I decided to install Manjaro on all computers. Since different computer architectures also cause different problems, I hope that there are solutions for them.
Thanks again for joining the forum. :slight_smile:

Hello
Long term Windows user here unscrewing his Windows head!
Having tried many distributions of Linux with different desktops where available over the past couple of years, some like Zorin aimed at Win users and some definitely not, I kept coming back to Debian and Manjaro with the plasma desktop.
I can’t quite put my finger on it, but having set up and run both Debian and Manjaro separately on different SSDs, spending many hours learning and fiddling (don’t care what anyone says, it’s a steep learning curve once past the obvious basics) I kept coming back to Manjaro and have it set up as my main OS now with Linux equivalent programs running on it and a couple with no equivalents (found as yet) running happily as well.

Win10 SSD resides on the desk looking a little lonely.

Hi, I’m James. I used Manjaro in the past, but switched to Windows 11 for a while. However, many of the recent decisions by Microsoft have been very … questionable. So I’m currently dual booting win 11 and Manjaro with the aim of abandoning Windows entirely.

Hey!

I was used to using a CLI redhat for my work, which is all on supercomputers, but I frequently switched over to WSL when the HPCs got too busy. Getting a Steam Deck and seeing Valve’s work with Proton convinced me to just take the plunge on my main school/gaming laptop. I heard Manjaro played nice with Nvidia, so I went with it despite hearing some grumbling over dependency issues. To me, I like the freedom of AURs and have the tech know how to manage Arch issues, but I’ve found Manjaro greatly reduces the number of times I have issues, so I stick with it.

Hi, I’m Sergio and I’m 23 years old, although I’m so noob with Linux I’ve always been interested in this distro. Thanks for making Manjaro. It’s the only distro that works fine on my system.

Hello all! I’m new to the forum but not new to Linux. Admittedly, I’ve only signed up now that I need help, but I fully intend to pay it forward.
