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.

Manjaro. It's really the most hassle-free distro that doesn't have ancient software or risk breakage at every major version upgrade.
I know most of you can't think for yourselves and let strangers on the internet do it for you, so I fully expect replies telling me why this is wrong.
I know you can't help yourselves.
Manjaro sometimes breaks AUR packages because it slightly laggs behind Arch and depedencies aren't met. But I've been using it for years regardless and I really like it!
