Manjaro Linux is a really bad choice. I’d like my gaming console to be able to update if I turn it on after two years.
As someone not familiar with Manjaro, what is it about Manjaro that would prevent it from updating?
Nothing inherently, but it’s a rolling release, so the further away from the latest versions you are, the more likely something is going to prevent you from updating. Arch is the same way, but Steam OS is based on Arch snapshots, not a rolling release.
You kinda have to watch after rolling releases pretty constantly in order to keep them up to date and make sure they don’t get left behind.
