From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

So I've been iso live testing Manjaro KDE Plasma lately and it looks very polished.

On the other hand, there is a negative vibe towards it.

Why the hate?

I just wanna point out, people were using this exact same rhetoric when Antergos was a thing.

Antergos is no longer a thing. Just saying. Manjaro still is though! I believe it's older than endeavor OS.

Even if Endeavour stopped development tomorrow, I could still use and update my system normally because it’s using the regular Arch repos.
