So i've since moved to Arch (btw), but what's wrong with Manjaro? I never had an issue with it, but I have seen quite a few people dunking on it... just without any explanation.

MODERATORS
I don't think there's anything particularly wrong with it. In my opinion, the only downside to Manjaro is when you activate the aur repository, as doing so can cause dependency conflicts because this repository is designed for Arch and not for Manjaro and its version timeline.

What is the 3rd one in "Dogshit"?
I assume it is GNU Hurd, their own kernel.
Can't be. One can use the Hurd, and it wont hurt [much]. Not like the corporate enshitified proprietary malware operating systems.
Looks like wojakified GNU, which says it's an OS on their website.
But as I understand it, it's a SW collection that gets shipped with OSs but needs a kernel (usually Linux) to work as an OS.

Mint is for both noobs and the very experienced computer nerd, fight me!
Must be true.
No one's accepting your invite for a fight.
This is all over the place
Finally, I'm normal. I'm so happy.
ChromeOS is definitely better than windows, you can run all your normal Linux things just with a slightly annoying desktop environment
What's the agreement say when installing / first starting a chromeos?
... If I recall correctly, it too has a deal with the devil clause, and demands you doxx yourself to the machine before you get to use it.
Better/worse, becomes meaningless when it's already beyond what's fit to use.
Is that GNU/HURD in the last place?
how is artix schizo
I look at it more like Artix exists to solve the one "problem" with Arch. As much as Arch is generally about user choice, the one thing it decided to be opinionated about was the mandatory use of systemd. Artix tries to follow Arch as closely as possible while providing the alternate init systems. I think that's pretty cool, even if their hatred of systemd is childish.
If Gentoo can be both Chad and Schizo, Slack should definitely be in the Chad category too.
