…Why Manjaro?
Manjaro has been bizarrely good at getting hardware partners on board. Pine64 (think pinephone, pinetab, SBCs), MinisForum, Slimbook, Tuxedo, etc.
If only they were properly run in other areas.
It’s literally the distro that stopped my distro hopping. Manjaro’s freaking fantastic.
For me it was my gateway to Endeavour, I had Manjaro set up in a way that satisfied my every need and want.
But having to timeshift my system back into a bootable state after a borked update wave every few months was bad enough to kick me out of my complacency, and go looking for something else.
Honest question: why not?
Manjaro constantly winds up having really weird issues, they hold packages back in order to make it more stable, but it honestly just broke things far more often then upstream arch did for me. Manjaro and it’s community is also riddled with really weird issues. It was pointed out to me a while ago that manjaro did some updates that broke grub customizer, and when people were trying to figure out what broke and how to fix it, Manjaro instead not only removed grub customizer, but made it conflict with the grub they had so people working on trying to fix it got a shovel full of go fuckyourself in the face
Letting their SSL certificates expire that many times is definitely a no-go for me
just set your clock back!
Finally a competitor that has Linux and uses trackpads.
And the joysticks are Xbox style and not ps style. If that makes sense.
I wouldn’t call the Deck’s sticks PS style, because PS has them on the bottom. Wii U style?
I mean like, in line with each other instead of thumbs tick left and abxy right
I’m glad steam deck propelled a new wave of handheld consoles that actually has decent specs
Yeah hopefully we can get something decent in the 300 dollar range. I haven’t looked too much into these but they all seem to be 6-800.
Why Mandingo and not SteamOS?
Maybe it’s not a pure gaming device. Orange Pi usually makes SBC’s like rpi. Manjaro is a pretty good OS for gaming.
