Hi everyone :).
Just getting started with Manjaro as daily drive to get some easier arched based distro. Except for the LVM bug with calamares everything is pretty smooth :).
But at first boot, I saw they have added their personal Manjaro logo on boot and I directly though of the bug exploit logoFAIL I heard a few month ago and It made me curious if this is something that could be exploitable by Manjaro.
Probably not, this would harm their image and hard worked system, but I’m still curious… If someone smarter/more knowledgeable than me could chime in and give some valuable information on this topic regarding Manjaro, I would really appreciate it !
Thank you !
The ddos thing could happen from an actual attack. Arch should really look into building up better defenses against attack. It is dumb that it came from an actual distro but technically it could come from anywhere.
No argument from me there, the aur is not very well made. On arch I do have some issues with how the aur is operated along with the behavior of arch maintainers. Not to the point I’d state using the distro is a bad choice though, as quite a few are minor, disagreements on tech philosophy, or currently being addressed.
My issue with manjaro is their continual incompetence while most of the time doing nothing to stop the issue from recurring. Most of the problems I have seen manjaro go through are repeated. They don’t learn. Their issues aren’t just structural but a culture the company holds onto.
Manjaro is run by people who know enough to be dangerous
