When you run into trouble with that, not if but when, check out the dedicated section for it on the Arch Wiki first:

Hello fellow members of the manjaro community, Iāve been using manjaro for a couple of years now and thought I would give a shout out to the manjaro team for their support and development of a stellar product! Thanks

Iām returning to manjaro after using fedora and win10 for quite some time. I have old tech as I am not financially able to procure anything for more than the @$220 I spent on a 2014 Dell Optiplex 7010 In 2020. I have managed to max out the ram at 32 GB, upgrade the power supply and install a Nvidia GeForce 1050 ti by cutting grass for component money. This however has unleashed new woes upon me. I wonāt go into that here as I have posted my issue in the support section of this community.
All that being said I love open source and my software of choice is blender and krita. I am still learning to use both. It is my hope to be able to wield foss tools to spread light into the world. Thank you for having me here and I would love to learn more about the Manjaro community.

Hey Manjaro Community 
Iām a new Manjaro user as I thought it was about time to learn and give something back.
Iām just a linux user, have been since the yellow dog days with an Apple PowerPC 
Fully moved to linux 10+ years ago using Ubuntu mainly, then found Arch, Pop_OS and recently realised that I should actually start to learn more rather than just be a user.
I chose Manjaro as its got everything and is really polished, so Iām here to learn and I hope to help others too. Iāve also thrown my hat in with Sway and am really impressed with it.
Kudos to everyone who has created Manjaro/Sway and all other variants!
Thank you, thank you, thank you

Hello all. New to Manjaro, but have worked on Linux in the past but by no means an expert. Though some say Manjaro is not for newbies, I am with it for one simple reason. It is the only distro that seems to be working on my hardware.
I have an MSI GT72 6QD laptop with Intel i7 6700HQ CPU and nVidia 970M GPU. Was planning on Mint 21.3 as the consensus out there is that is the distro that ājust worksā, but suspend/wake did not work when I closed the laptop lid and neither did brightness up/down on the screen from either keyboard or taskbar controls. I also tried many flavors of Ubuntu, Fedora 40 KDE, Endeavor, MX, and Debian. Everyone of these had the same issues. Thought this hardware just wasnāt going to work well, but I tried Manjaro and was surprised (and very appreciative) that everything just works. Plus, I am completely blown away with the software availability which seems to be better than any other distro.
So far, Iām impressed, and hooked. Thank you to those folks who provide this. If anyone has any thoughts as to the problems I was having elsewhere, Iām all ears. I bought a 2nd SSD so I can load another distro on the 2nd drive and start playing/troubleshooting. Iāve tried so many things Iāve found on forums with limited to no success. The next thing I will try is upgrading the Kernel to the 6.9 Kernel my Manjaro install is using and adding a PPA to get the nVidia 550 drivers to match what Manjaro has just to see if it is a Kernel/nVidia drive issue where they are not playing nice together.
Anyway, sorry to be long winded and thanks again to all who put this STUNNING, AMAZING distro together.

Hello, complete Linux newbie here! Manjaro seems to be the most stable out of any distro Iāve tried (especially with my wacky Acer hardware) and I hope to transition to a full ecosystem of Linux-based systems within a few years.
I hope Iāll mostly use this forum to discuss things other than issues and bugs
Best regards!

Iām on a quest to find the best Linux distro for my needs.
I work as an animator for videogames and Manjaro is my second distro for now. Youāre all amazing!

Hello everyone.
I recently installed Manjaro as my first Linux distro, because I wanted to get away from Windows given all their embedded spyware. I chose this one given some recommendations, and because I thought that Arch cutting edge release was better than Debian based distros. Also I thought that it would be a bit more challenging that Debian based. But obviously Arch was way too complicated for a noob on Linux like me.

True. Debian or -based might be better to get you started. Then you can always go forward from there. I started with Ubuntu and here I am now, and I do not want to go back. This might be a good read for you:
All that said, depending on your will, perseverance and, most importantly, discipline, you can start with Manjaro. But it isnāt, nor will it ever be Windows.

I agree with mostly everything commented here.
But nobody including me is a superior being with all existing knowledge. Using the example of the Lego, obviously If I buy some Lego is cause I like to build it myself, but if I donāt know how to, I will use the instructions provided with it.
The same applies to everything in life, both in or out of the screen. If I want to get something, I can buy it or do it myself, but if I want to do it myself I will need some tools that I will need to learn how to use. In the programming scope, this is as simply as each time you want to configure something in your OS (Audio for example), or using any package for the program you are developing. You donāt know how the program or package or tool works, you just use it (or learn to use it).
If I got to Linux was because I like the Open Source and GNU community and I wanted to contribute in some form if possible, but as I said I am not a walking library that knows, Python, JS, C++, Rust, Assembly and Binary.
If I wanted to help on bugs report, I canāt go to the code and tell you what is wrong cause I wonāt be able to read it and since I hadnāt develop anything of it, learning everything on it is a massive loss of time. So the best I can do if to tell you the steps to repeat the bug.

Hey I would like to introduce myself up first Iāve wanted to answer specific question about how to do an offline installation of software.
It seems this was a topic in need but I hesitate to post the method I use as maybe men Jarrow as a rolling links distribution does not want me to enable offline in installation easily quickly.
