Just for fun, I want to share something to address people installing new distro just to try different desktop environment.
Some years ago (after system disk failure) I needed to do a fresh install and I wasn't in a mood to repeat the Gentoo experience since I had no time. So the next obvious candidate was Arch, but me being lazy, went with Manjaro minimal for the "next next finish" installation experience.
Almost immediately i switched to unstable to be in sync with arch and avoid AUR incompatibilities.
Next step was putting ALHP core, extra, multilib as first priority.
At some point CachyOS repos added to have clean access to their kernels and proton and whatever else.
After recent Manjaro drama, I added regular Arch repos above the Manjaro (with reverse proxy magic).
And of course I happily hope between Gnome and Cosmic desktops depending on the mood.
So the base Manjaro install became mostly Arch with occasional Manjaro branding and configs.
