  • Select view:
  • To compare the software in this project to the software available in other distributions, please see our Compare Packages page.
  • Notes: In case where multiple versions of a package are shipped with a distribution, only the default version appears in the table. For indication about the GNOME version, please check the "nautilus" and "gnome-shell" packages. The Apache web server is listed as "httpd" and the Linux kernel is listed as "linux". The KDE desktop is represented by the "plasma-desktop" package and the Xfce desktop by the "xfdesktop" package.
  • Colour scheme: green text = latest stable version, red text = development or beta version. The function determining beta versions is not 100% reliable due to a wide variety of versioning schemes.

Simply the most suited to me out of all that I have tried.
Up to date, reliable, innovative, great performance.
After distro hopping for a few years I stayed on Fedora for quite awhile, then their live boot shim issue which affected some systems including mine was allowed through 2 versions which IMO is disrespectful to users having those system.
Yes there was a work around, but that wasn't ideal.
I jumped ship and landed on Manjaro, I was instantly impressed with the performance of use and of the speed of updates, I should have jumped earlier.
Well done to the Manjaro team, even with a few questionable hiccups I have read about you guys/gals have redeemed yourself gracefully.
Thanks.

Manjaro Linux is a stable bleeding edge rolling release that is claimed to be more tested than Arch Linux because it performs some additional testing before releasing the updates. It is beginner-friendly as it comes with all the basic packages and is ideal for those who are entirely new to the Linux ecosystem, as it’s designed explicitly for ease of use. Manjaro is simple, straightforward and easy to understand, without the usual configuration headaches that go along with a Linux installation.

You don't need to be a master of Arch to use an Arch-like distro. I appreciate having the flexibility of Arch with the refinements of a tuned distribution like Ubuntu. Plus it supports BRTFS out of the box...what more could you want?

So far i really love it.
Running on my Zephyrus G14 and everything works out of the box. Lutris works, Steam works, GPU drivers, Network... everything.
Love the System Settings program with Info Center and Processes. Lots of configuration done in a simple interface.

Had Pop_Os! as my daily driver and it had some problems here and there. Very limited configuration options. This one is in a different league. Only thing I havent found yet is how to switch graphics cards.

Nevertheless I`m really impressed and finally found a system that you dont have to struggle with setup for basic use but is not basic.
