    Manjaro which is less stable than Arch in my experience.

    That’s because their whole concept is bullshit. Delaying updates for two weeks would make sense, when they actually used that time frame for testing and to fix bugs before release. In reality they just delay everything without sense, so you actually get the same bugs, just 2 weeks later because the fixes are also delayed.

    And then they add access to the AUR (by default even, where Arch warns people about the risks) which assumes an up-to-date system, not one lagging 2 weeks behind. Which is a big shiny invitation to dependency hell.

      The AUR with delayed official repos was precisely my issue with them. Then they put GUI helpers ontop of both pacman and the AUR which auto update and now you’ve got a real recipe for disaster.
