QUICK LOOK ON MANJARO DISTRIBUTION
And will not sing praises on how cool Linux is. Because I know that it has its own quirks and inconveniences.
For testing I almost randomly choose [Manjaro Linux]
with lightweight [XFCE desktop]
.
Manjaro is based upon [Arch distribution]
.Yeah, ubuntu is too much pop for me.
Key benefits of Manjaro are quite transparent: modern & stable environment and pretty vibrant community.
I understand that Linux don’t have all software, which I need and try to find software replacement in a while.
It is very approximate breakdown for upcoming Linux migration.
