I’ve been using Linux Mint since forever. I’ve never felt a reason to change. But I’m interested in what persuaded others to move.

    Manjaro ships with a LTS kernel, which is marked “recommended” in the kernel selection tool. By default you don’t have to do anything, don’t ever need to use the kernel selection, and you won’t experience any problems, it works like any other distro.

    The issues you described are caused by selecting one of the non-recommended kernel versions. It’s assumed you know what you’re doing if you do that.

      Idk what was wrong then, but I constantly had issues with packages being out of date due to the kernel and not wanting to update. Dependencies were constantly a mess. I’d rather just have normal Arch or Antergos/Endeavor

      Exactly I really don’t get the argument there. Manjaro’s handling of kernel selection is brilliant. Multiple LTS kernels, a recommended one, bleeding hedge and experimental ones. There’s something for everyone and it’s super easy to use.
