From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I don't remember which ones exactly I was missing, but it was a very common occurrence that I had to work around with appimages or flatpacks (or AUR, but that caused dependency hell all the time).
RPMfusion is a one time addition on system installation and the rest is available via Flathub, which is significantly better integrated in Fedora than Manjaro/Arch.
But one that you have to manage with every new Fedora version. I've always had issues with RPMFusion packages not being ready in time for new Fedora releases or flat out causing conflicts with packages from the main Fedora repos.
That is just simply not true. As long as you have the
flatpakpackage installed, it works just like it does on Fedora.I get the feeling that maybe you just haven't tried Arch in a while, but perhaps a lot has changed since the last time you used it.
Last time I checked Flatpak support was not seamlessly integrated into the GUI update manager like it is on Fedora.
I have the feeling you are a typical Arch fanboy that doesn't consider the original posters question for a hassle free but not Ubuntu based system 😅
