[GTALUG] Anyone here using Manjaro or OpenSUSE?

[Veronica Gluza]

Hi,

I’ve been on Manjaro for around 3 years now and quite happy with it. No major problems other than sometimes being limited to certain software as the most stable applications on any arch distro come from AUR (Arch Linux User Repository). I have avoided using applications that require PPA repositories since I usually was able to find an alternative on AUR. 

Spotify and Skype work without issue. 

I highly recommend this distro.
