Another vote for Endeavour OS here

Only if you’re a bad programmer :/

Brilliant

I think people can use what they want as their wallpaper

I did actual work on openSUSE Tumbleweed for nearly eight years. It was completely reliable. Now I do actual work on Endeavour OS and so far it has been completely reliable. It has far exceeded my expectations.

And you got it so what’s to complain about?

Maybe there’s a service pack?

Well, that really makes a difference!

I only get a couple of problems.

• A panel that wraps content is sized to one icon when logging in for the first time
• Plasma Shell occasionally crashes and restarts

But then, I’m not running a stock plasma, I have a few add-ons compiled from source and a few widgets downloaded from the get new things. One of those could be causing the crash but I haven’t proved that yet. I’m fairly sure the panel is a plasma bug.

Edit: Oh and sorting pinned icons in the icons only taskbar is a real pain in wayland.

Edit 2: It seems the sorting has been fixed since I last did it and I haven’t had the crash since the last plasma update

You’re messing with partitions which means there is the potential for data loss, be it hardware, human error, or a random cat. You should, if the data is important to you, have a backup.

Is it read only?

Why?

Let me put the question back to you. How do think the uniquely identifiable information will help them improve Manjaro?

Do you think they’ve got a Russian satellite and will track down your HDD serial number from space?

No.

There’s lots of benefits to telemetry.

As I basically said, if you bothered to read my comment.

They’ve let TLS certs expire on multiple occasions.

And they told their community to set their clocks back. As a workaround, it will work but all your created and modified data will have the wrong timestamps.

enable telemetry by default … MAC addresses, disk serial numbers

Another reason to not use Manjaro. Just use Endeavour instead.

Edit: I’m not against telemetry pre se. I have the KDE feedback enabled for example but that was opt in and sends no unique data.

I hesitate to say

You can’t fool me, they have another daemon for that

Update /etc/systemd/resolved.conf and add some DNS servers (in this example, 1.1.1.1 is CloudFlare, and 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 are Google but you can use your preferred DNS servers.)

[Resolve]
DNS=1.1.1.1 8.8.8.8
FallbackDNS=8.8.4.4

Restart system resolved:

service systemd-resolved restart

Run resolvectl status (or systemd-resolve --status in older versions of systemd) to see if the settings took.

If they don’t take after a reboot, there’s something else going on.

Pro: you have a custom kernel.

Con: the next morning, you can have a non-functioning computer with no idea of what you did.

Recompile your kernel whilst drunk

Technically, all comedy is staged unless you’re laughing at someone’s real life misfortune.
