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.

Guide to configuring Arch Linux like Manjaro with Cinnamon desktop? (piefed.zip)

I’m planning to switch from Manjaro to pure Arch, but I really like the easy setup Manjaro provides. Are there any guides, wikis, or personal tips to replicate that setup on a fresh Arch install? Looking for something that covers the essential packages, configurations, and tweaks to get a similar out‑of‑the‑box feel. Thanks in advance!

This or one of the other "Arch but easier" distros like CachyOS or Garuda Linux. I've been running Garuda happily for about 4 years now, and recently put CachyOS on my laptop to play with it and so far it's been great too.
