    The great thing about manjaro is, that when it finally bricks itself you can install a proper distro on it. https://github.com/arindas/manjarno

      I used Manjaro for about a year around 2019 and it was awful.

      I liked its selling point on being based on Arch and having access to AUR, but the official repositories would only have stuff that is vetted to work on the current release of Manjaro (at least that's what I had heard about Manjaro at the time)

      The amount of times a package update shit the floor is too many to count.

      Before that I was using Ubuntu and for the most part it was fine.

      The first distro I used was Mint since the desktop environments, Cinnamon, resembled Windows XP.

        Read through the link i provided. The major point i take issue with, is their package repository. They basically delay every package for a few days to call them 'stable'. This behavior makes it by definition incompatible with the AUR. One of the major reasons so many Manjaro systems break. The other reason is their awful package manager.

        I ran my manjaro install for over 3 years but never touched pamac and instead used pacman and paru. I was simply too lazy to set up another distro at the time.

      They have a platform at least? Some day they may release one. The main problem with arm gaming is that you could also do it on a phone+controllers.

    Cool, the more Linux-based handhelds, the better! I would prefer a handheld with RK3588S, but this one is interesting too.
