How come you say Manjaro is not recommended? I went straight for Arch years ago so I don't know what's wrong with the derivatives.
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
The link seems rather outdated.
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.
It’s had a few security issues in the past and last I heard they introduce a lag between packages going into the arch repos and things being available in Manjaro - even for critical security updates.
