    But how is a new person supposed to know that? Ubuntu is still at the top of many charts. And has years of previous positive reviews.

    Mint is far better, I usually recommand it. But Ubuntu is still more popular.

    I didn't use Manjaro in many years, so I can't judge it. The biggest problem I see with Manjaro is that it has access to AUR.

    Manjaro has its own repos, and they take more time to release packages than Arch, which can be a good thing stability wise. But if you have applications from AUR installed then you might have conflicts with the dependencies needed and the dependencies used by the system.

    As I said, I didn't use Manjaro in a while, so I don't know if it still a problem. If it is, then it's a shame that the biggest advantage of Arch, the AUR, become that much a risk for the system.
