Manjaro Linux 20.0.3 - KDE Plasma - Linux Review

[@jvkanufan8115]

I distro hopped for a while. I now have Manjaro Gnome and Manjaro KDE installed on my laptops - have never looked back.

[@kleanpc]

Good to hear, Manjaro has been very stable when I have used it, a fine OS for sure.

[@dstinnettmusic]

The themeing is what makes KDE so strong. Want a dark theme with a basic dock what gets out of your way (aka gnome shell)? It can do that. Want a windows-style traditional desktop metaphor? It can do that. Want a OS X dock and system bar setup? It can do that. Want a transparent RGB Linux wonderland? It can do that, too.

[@kleanpc]

All excellent points.

I have installed manjaro and it works like a charm.

[@kleanpc]

Great to hear your success with Manjaro!

[@MarioPerez-yi2tw]

@@kleanpc You can click the start button in manjaro, show alternatives, application menu and switch.

[@MsKartik07]

Manjaro is finest quality of OS having feature like butter and bread jam.

To be frank... I caught "hell" at first (being a Win 10 user and transitioning to. Linux) but I can unequivocally say, Manjaro 20.1 KDE Plasma-- once setup and configured, is "off the hook!" (Great)!

[@kleanpc]

Great to hear that you had a good experience with Manjaro!

Thank you!

Is that wallpaper part of the OS? If not where did you get it.

[@kleanpc]

That is a wallpaper that comes with the distribution, I think it is excellent.

Animation when switch from different desktops is fluid ?

[@kleanpc]

yea, they have done a nice job with this.

I just switched from KDE Neon to manjaro KDE today, after almost 2.5 years and my experience has been horrible. It is laggy and there is stuttering everywhere... i tried updating but it didn't work. Do i need to install it again?

[@kleanpc]

I always encourage people to do a fresh install if possible. Also, double check your video drivers if it seems to be a consistent issue with the visual aspect of the distro.

[@rupsh4460]

@@kleanpc it worked in my second install even though i installed that in exactly same way and i was using nvidia bumblebee drivers both times which comes pre installed in non free drivers mode. But i had to switch back to neon because i couldn't get My Tensorflow and Cuda to work properly. I wish i could make it work in manjaro.

[@kleanpc]

@@rupsh4460 Sorry to hear that Tensorflow and Cuda are not working. Kudos to your second install though, if nothing else you gain some experience, persistence will pay off.
