If you have set your mind to Manjaro I don’t want to dissuade you, but if you are not yet strongly convinced of the distro I always like to point out that there were some issues with the distribution in the past (someone collected them here).

If you’re just after an Arch-like distribution I think EndeavourOS is a very friendly distro without adding their own repositories on top of Arch. But again - if you’re happy with Manjaro by all means also stay with it.

Everything works.

I’ve never had a problem with Windows that I couldn’t fix by a restart.

Windows is still the most used operating system because it just [works].

not everyone using the operating system wants to do the inane bullshit that Linux users do and some of us want to just have it do the bare minimum.

I have literally never encountered a Windows Bro who says how awesome Windows is and how you should totally use it and it’s the best option and anything else is trash.

Have you never met them because… it’s you? Have I solved the trick question? :-)

Lidarr is configured with folder C, which is a mergerfs volume consisting of folder A and B. Folder A is read-only, and any writes on C go into folder B. This way Lidarr can “see” all my existing music, while any automated downloads go into folder B, keeping them separate from my organized files.

That is so dang clever I definitely have to steal the idea.

I think I’ve been out of the loop here, what happened to Monica?
