I have tried both PopOs and Manjaro. I dont really like both of them.

For Manjaro, I used one of the community edition repacks and many of my peripherals failed to work on boot like Wifi and keyboard. Unfortunately, the week I installed Manjaro was also the week the forums went down so that made things way worse.

PopOs felt quite buggy. I used to postpone every kernel upgrade by at least 2 weeks as something would always break after.

Currently I’m using Linux Mint and everything just works. If I were to start over I would go with Mint, Ubuntu or Fedora. I have found the WM and workflow that I’m comfortable with and would like to just be on a distro that works.
