I had to convince my cousin I bought him a Mac, but I didn't want to support a Mac, so I tweaked KDE to look like OSX. He thought it was great how cheap he got a laptop, and was surprised Dell made Macs now. Had him fooled for about 2 years until he asked some kid to help him do something.
I just shrugged and asked him if he'd have known if he hadn't been told. Yah, cuz knows cows, not computers.
Is this like a real anecdote? Two years… no problems no questions ?
If you’re setting up a computer for family then you’re the one who deals with the problems
For most people that is just running a browser so issues are unlikely to surface
Really, no issues. Manjaro KDE. All he uses is a browser and WPS Office.
Sorry, no issues... Manjaro?
I cannot visualize 6 months without it breaking on update.
I run Manjaro on about a half dozen systems for the last 5 or so years. I've had very few problems. I've used a lot of distros over the last 30 years, it's been the least maintenance.
There's a lot of unfounded Manjaro hate on this site, probably by people that have never used it and just parrot the Manjarno narrative. It's pretty sad to see how it gets maligned at every opportunity.
