Any other derivatives are fine AFAIK, just not Manjaro. There's quite a bit out there about why you should avoid Manjaro. This source is older, but I've linked it before: https://github.com/arindas/manjarno

Any of them that use the Arch repos directly are probably fine. Don't use Manjaro.
I will say that Arch does now have a guided installer, so you don't need to do everything manually. Here's the wiki page for it: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Archinstall
btw I use arch
Eley makes the best garden hose quick connects on the market nowadays. They're hideously expensive and can only be purchased through Eley's website with slow shipping, but good god damn are they stout and reliable.
Yeah, I don't run shell scripts unless I can review them first. I'm considered "the bash guy" at my job, and part of that means reviewing people's scripts. I have referenced this wiki page hundreds of times because so many people don't know how fucking shit Bash is as a language. My god, every time I see set -euo pipefail I want to scream until my lungs exit my body and then I leave a polite comment about how that might be a bad idea and link this page.
My BLE proxies keep picking up my neighbor's toothbrush. I was briefly tempted to install the integration just to see what would happen. I didn't because that's creepy, but just... what a weird world we live in.
No, it's syphilitic brain damage.
I fucking hate that the use of emdashes (i.e. —) is associated with fuckass LLMs. I use them all the time and now I'm worried I'll be mistaken for an LLM.
Your link is borked. Here's a fixed version: https://www.c-span.org/program/senate-committee/meta-whistleblower-testifies-on-facebook-practices/658354
I mean, yeah. I wouldn't have found that project and gone to the effort of using it if a simple dehu was all I needed. I wanted something I could control with my local home assistant install, and you can't just hard power cycle a dehumidifier, it kills them.
That's why projects like this are great: https://github.com/Hypfer/esp8266-midea-dehumidifier
My Midea Cube dehumidifier can never be bricked and will never send data outside of my home. It talks to Home Assistant via MQTT and nothing else.
I'll mirror what others have said. Arch is the most stable distro I've ever used over the long term. Even with heavy AUR use, I've been rocking the same installation for over a decade on one of my computers.
It probably is. I think there are newer examples available, but I lack the motivation to find them for others. I feel it still represents the fundamental issues with Manjaro, if not the current specific ones.
