Why are distro communities turning linux more and more into Windows and Mac OS clones?

This is why I use Arch.

Friends don't let friends use Manjaro

Use EndeavourOS or another Arch derivative instead.

    Or just plain arch. Installing it with archinstall isn't that hard

    And it's a one-time thing, then you just pacman - Syu into the sunset. Consider setting up btrfs with snapshots, which is a life saver when an update goes bad. I use snapper on openSUSE Tumbleweed and it has saved me from bad NVIDIA updates a couple of times, which is the main reason I switched from Arch a few years ago.
