OBS is the one that gets me. A lot of streamers I follow talk about how they use OBS because it’s such a reliable standard and works the way they expect. Pretty cool that an open source app is the standard for something as mainstream as livestreaming.
I’ve used many distros over the years. Manjaro has sane defaults, and I like the driver utility and the kernel tool a lot. Overall, Manjaro just works. I’m familiar with all the drama surrounding the distro, but I’m unbothered. I like using it.
I have machines running Debian and EOS too, but when I want something hassle free, like for the retro gaming / emulation machine in my living room, I choose Manjaro.
Agreed; if you tend to tweak your system at all, 1-2 years of updates all at once will cause chaos with 1-2 years of small changes you totally meant to record in your notes. On the very rare occasion something breaks on my EOS system, updates are frequent enough that it’s usually just the one issue at a time, and I’m still able to remember what silly thing I did to cause the issue - such as compiling NeoChat from git main while using a lib from the AUR to get session verification working early.
…and so many more

I actually use EOS on my main machine. Still had a better experience on Manjaro.

I love the floating release model. Other OSes vastly over estimate how much time I want to spend on huge updates that break stuff.
