Pretty much the title. Where’s the hate towards Manjaro coming from? I was pretty much a Ubuntu/Fedora user for years but never got too technical. Used almost always gnome, but recently got interested in tiling wm and have done some searches and stumbled upon the Manjaro Sway edition and everything works quite well, but I keep seeing people bashing on Manjaro and I don’t know exactly why. So if I were to use sway in Arch or Arco (way friendlier to install) if there any simple way to replicate the makeup sway default configuration?
Thank you all for your time.
Things in the AUR are built for Arch, so they use the libraries that Arch uses, which means that whenever Arch increases major versions of libraries AUR packages get rebuilt for that version and fail to work on an older one. If you use the packages that build from source you’re less likely to be affected, also this is not such a huge issue because AUR packages take a while to get updated and most of these changes are backwards compatible (so they don’t break on Arch), but I’ve seen it happen plenty of times, almost every week someone using Manjaro would come to the arch subreddit to ask help because a package from AUR had stopped working. And if you don’t believe me, at least believe the guys who wrote the Manjaro wiki
