Looking for a normie KDE distro that works out of the box and is stable without issues.

    It has been 442d 15h 07m 53s since Manjaro !$%&?*# up.

    So a year and a half? That’s not all that bad really. And that time it was a (admittedly bloody stupid) cock up involving the SSL certificate of their website not of the distro itself

        I don’t have any issues with the complaints often mentioned about Manjaro.

        Linux Mint, on the other hand, once got hacked and hosted malware on their website :(

        But I’m sure you’re as quick to tell people about that as you are to tell people about Manjaro.

            Well, you’ve heard about it now so I fully expect you to take up the crusade like you have against manjaro, unless you’re biased/tribalist.

            Also pretty disingenuous to compare a single incident of being hacked with a pattern of sloppiness and negligence.

            No it’s not, lol. Being infected with malware is worse than anything the Manjaro team has done. If you disagree, then you’re just not worth taking seriously.

            Let’s be honest though, you’re not worth taking seriously because you just do what you think will make you look good in front of your peers.

                One is significantly worse than the other. Getting hacked is significantly worse than anything the Manjaro team did. My point is that what happened to Linux Mint was worse than anything that happened to Manjaro, but people like you never get up in arms about it.

                You might want to brush up on your reading comprehension if this is difficult for you to understand.

                    Lol. It’s funny that you’re actually sitting here defending neglecting security.

                    Thanks for cementing in my mind that you, and people like you, are not worth taking seriously.

                    Either you’re a troll or just out of touch with reality.

                    Goodbye.

        Also I’ve just actually looked at EndeavourOS’ website and it says very clearly front and centre that it’s focused on the terminal, which is entirely not what OP was even asking for. It might be a fine distro, I don’t know, I’ve never used it or checked how many years it is since they cocked up, but it doesn’t present itself as a KDE focused distro which is what OP (and I) want!

          I keep saying that’s what turns me off from endeavor as a Manjaro user.

          That, and it seems like all the people suggesting it don’t really have their minds grounded in reality.

          A lot of them legitimately believe Arch is a sufficient replacement for Manjaro, and that just tells me they aren’t worth taking seriously.

          There’s a lot of 🧩 in the FOSS space, and I think we should acknowledge it for what it is instead of putting it on a pedestal.

        Or maybe you just have a weird bee in your bonnet about something that’s not even really a problem as evidenced from your own numbers

                    I’m using it as a linux distro, which I then use to do things on my computer that I actually want to do like work and play games and browse the internet! I used the installer once and I seem to recall it was fine (though I’m not keen on the tepid green they chose as a colour scheme).

                    What do you use your computer for?
