Why would I use 'Arch for babies' when I can just use Arch?

I used to use manjaro before I started using Arch

This.
What's the point?

I do use Manjaro, familia.

Going to install Arch tommorow
>>
>>56703916
Because Arch-based distros are inherently unstable.

For this reason I use Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS.

Much better. I am considering (don't laugh) Linux Mint.
>>
I don't understand why anyone goes for Manjaro over Antergos

because I'm running MATE 16.10 right now

>>56710770
Ubuntu won't fix your x-org bugs and neither will debian
>>
>>56710672
If you can't install arch you should probably stick to ubuntu or windows.
>>
>>56710917
There's no point in installing Arch the real way for the second time

>>56710672
What's easier about it?

>>56710952
Why not? If you're already so experienced, you know that it's nothing much more than typing pacstrap and chroot.
You've already read the few lines needed to know how to press the ridiculously difficult combination of letters that is "pacstrap /mnt base", yet you'd rather take the long route of downloading, then clicking a bunch of times?

Again, there's no point in Manjaro. It tries to do Ubuntu's job, but then apparently for people who have too much difficulty installing Arch a second time?

Fuck pacman.

Pip not installed

I literally can´t install Manjaro on my laptop.

Nobody has yet given a good reason as to why systemd sucks.

Nobody has had an actual problem with systemd.

They can still prefer OpenRC.

>implying that's all there is to getting a usable installation
Man I use arch and I love it but get real there is more to it than that. ESPECIALLY when dealing with specific hardware configs (thanks broadcom)

I ask this every thread - in terms of package updates, how does Manjaro compare to Debian? Is it more like testing? And then would that make Debian sid akin to Manjaro testing?
>>
>>56714791
Like what was that? Simple AUR package bw-wireless, or bw-wireless-dkms?
How can your second time installing Arch be slower than downloading and installing Manjaro, then dealing with green on black until you configure that?
>>
not easier but quicker than arch, get most packages i want ready plus proprietary drivers
>>
>>56710874
manjaro doesnt use proprietary drivers by default also more DE options and i personally prefer manjaro packages
>>
>>56714845
>DE
>Drivers
>basic utilities like sudo, network manager, the likes

Unless Manjaro doesn't come with this shit either at which point just fuck me in the ass. But the broadcom-wl will definitely be a problem for me in the future because I don't have a wired connection for my desktop.

It's not like it's any faster or slower than arch install I imagine. And you get a little more stability at the cost of delayed packages. I don't see what's the problem. I notice the arch community is really against anything that isn't pure arch.
>>
>>56714999
I use an android phone so I don't have any issues with internet for installing.
>>
>>56703988
>Fails to push security updates for the sake of "stability"
To be fair, they fixed this after they were publicly shamed about it.
>>
>>56703916
Would anyone recommend Manjaro over Architect to install Arch or is there a better installer?
>>
I currently have Arch running on my laptop, had no issue following the guide and getting everything set up. Was easier to install than gentoo.
As I said, I have Arch running, however, I have no idea what the fuck I'm doing.
Should I scrap it and install Antergos/Manjaro?
>>
>>56717207
Nah just keep going with arch until you encounter a critical system error.

Ive used arch for about six months and after the initial setup there is legitimately no big difference between Ubuntu and other things. It's still Linux with some different ideas.
>>
I like ElementaryOS. I always liked the look and feel of OS X. I mean, I could probably rice Manjaro to the point where it looks like OS X, but why waste time doing that? ElementaryOS just werks
>>
>>56711140
Saves time, comes with useful software so you don't have to fucking pacman everything you need for hours after installing it.
>>
I use Kali Linux because I'm not some wannabe bad ass who uses a shitty distro.
>>
>>56703916
Because I already use Fedora
>>
>>56720939
Does Elementary's lack of function not bug you?

I've been running it on one of my laptops for a few weeks, and it does work, but it's sort of annoying how limited it is. This is coming from someone who is not elitist at all - I own six computers, two are Windows one is OSX one is Elementary and two are Manjaro.
>>
>>56703916
Sub-distros are 99% of the time garbage. I'd rather just go with the main distro. I don't need some retard deciding that x or y security update is necessary or not.

I installed Manjaro KDE a few weeks ago, and it's pretty comfy. Why is it getting so much hype though?

It's useless.

Because I use Arch because I'm not a child

the whole fucking point of using arch is to do this you plebeian
>>

literally this
>>
>>56726809
Yeah, still not sure why you would want Arch without doing any of that scary Arch stuff. What does it offer over Ubuntu?

Your a man child.
