I dont really like the traditional desktop layout of xfce or kde, been trying to jump into i3 or awesome window managers but I dont feel as Zen to do that.

I switched out of every distro because I was unhappy with them.

The only time Ive willingly switched out of Manjaro was when I wanted to go from KDE to Gnome.

After Gnome, while installing flutter I broke my system and decided to do a little more distro hopping before coming back to Manjaro since Id been on Manjaro for so long.

Manjaro was stable and I really love Arch and Pacman, and since Manjaro is an Arch based distro which is ready to use out of the box, I thought why not I really enjoy Manjaro and Ive used it longer than any other.

I love how smoothly and seamlesslt it works and Manjaro and Ubuntu are the only distros Ive used where I didnt need to do any customisation to be happy with it.

I dont really like KDE, its always felt like a half baked implementation of Windows to me(I know theres a lot of sworn KDE lovers but this is my opinion) and I never liked a lot of its aspects.

I hate the stock UI and even though Id used Windows all my life before coming to Linux, I much prefer the top bar and dock UI as opposed to the task bar UI.

I also found Gnome to be lighter and smoother(this may seem odd but its what I experienced) and KDEs scaling it way too large and windows like, Im not vision impaired in any way and dont need elements taking up so much space (I know its customisable but I still wasnt happy after customising it).

When I was using KDE I customised it heavily but I was still not happy with the end result.

Gnome besides from feeling lighter also gets out of my way more.

The top bar only tells me the time, has a small Arch logo in the top left, and some important things like wifi Bluetooth KDE connect etc on the right.

If you arent happy with the stock theme, Id recommend using flat remix.

Ubuntu was the first Linux distro I used too.

Years ago. Manjaro is my preferred one now.

For many reasons I wont bother listing.
