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.

These are the reasons people hate Manjaro: https://manjarno.snorlax.sh/
Guess the link is broken... Is this a joke that went over my head?
Yup, it's dead. Here's the Internet Archive's snapshot: https://web.archive.org/web/20230626075444/https://manjarno.snorlax.sh/
Well, looks like the site went down just a few minutes after I posted this :/
Wow, I’m so out of the loop that I didn’t even know they made Asahi Linux. I was interested in trying it on my MacBook Air M1.
I don't think Manjaro made Asahi, that seems like poor phrasing. Manjaro has tried to get into the ARM scene for sure (and royally messed up), but Asahi is a completely independent project, directly based on Arch ARM.
Oh okay I see! Yeah the phrasing is weird and English isn’t my first language so I guess I read it wrong, my bad!
No worries, it confused me too and I had to double-check ^^
