G'day List, According to DistroWatch, Manjaro is the most popular Linux disribution by a vary large margin.
Has anyone put TDE/Trinity on Manjaro? If so, what is the correct way to do it?
Thanks, Glen
Besides the fact that their ranking seems only based on visit count to their own web site (so it actually means, if true, that Manjaro users are more eager than others to visit Distrowatch - that I actually never visited before reading your mail), Manjaro is a rolling distribution. Does this not make TDE more difficult to install?

To me it sounds like the next millenials crap that comes out. Just look at chapter 3. Don’t Have to Worry About PPAs and 4. Tons of Software.
My question is who is sponsoring those projects and most important why.

Right on. More packages available than in Debian? Somebody has been drinking the Kool-Aid. If you choose a distro that promises to be easy and user-friendly, you might end up with something that isn't much better than Windoze and the rotten Apple.
You know, when I first got into Linux (15+ years ago?), I tried out more distros than I can remember; at least 20 or 30. Knoppix, PC Linux, all the 'buntus, Q4OS, Kali Linux, ExeGNU Linux, Slackware and several variants, Puppy Linux, Zen Linux. I still try out new distros now and again, because you never know, and it's good to have options. So I wouldn't discourage anybody from trying out new things, but don't believe everything you read or hear.
Burn some live discs. Try them all, if you can afford to spend a little money on CDs and DVDs (and you can even put them on flash drives!).
