I made the bad decision to try it instead of arch for one machine because installing was easier. And it was just constantly broken from out of date repos and all their built in shit just not being very good. And now they just released some manifest or something to try get the project back on track. I haven't looked at it in like 5+ years but this graph makes me think nothing really changed.

That's my experience of a couple months with it as well.

Went back to my usual OpenSuSE or Fedora.
