Thumbs up GNU Linux User


Tried a few OSs and chose Manjaro. Been a week and though there has been some bumps in the road, so far searches have answered all my questions and solved all problems. Any Manjaro users here have any tips or good links please do send them my way.

Thanks
-Chuck
(sorry about the really bad subject pun)

Greetings Chuck. Generally rolling release distros are less stable.

I would recommend that, as with other distros, you make fairly regular system images so that you can easily roll back if things go awry. I used Manjaro for a while but it got in a fankle I couldn't recover from, and I wished at the time that I had made such images.

Oh, and welcome!

Thanks. Found Timeshift for backup. I'll see how Manjaro goes. Real glad to be Microsoft free.
