Why do some people hate Manjaro? (lemmy.world)

Sometimes people tell me I should have gone with either Linux Mint or EndeavourOS, and otherwise don't really tell me why it's bad, just that it's bad. So far I only could find one thing, which is that their repo isn't 100% rolling for stability, and sometimes it does not guarantee stability.

Pretty much everybody I know who have used manjaro, say it fucked up their computer because of an update.

In general, it has update problems

Probably something to do with their main package deleting the pacman lock file so it can run a nested pacman update command... Which means two pacman instances running at the same time and nothing stopping other ones after that nested one has completed.
