Shall I Upgrade to Linux Mint 20 or Switch to Manjaro?
by Oasis_o7 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5BRHV)
Hello!
I've been running Linux Mint 19 on my main PC for several months now after a friend of mine convinced me to finally make the switch from Windows.
Now that same friend, who has a lot of experience with Linux and is generally speaking a real computer wiz, is telling me I ought to switch to Manjaro.
I'm looking for a second opinion. Should I switch? Or Should I upgrade? I have a basic idea of how to install a new distro, as I still remember what it was like to install Linux Mint, but after reading through the upgrade instructions on the LM website I felt like I was out of my depth. With enough time and research I can do just about anything, I just want to know if it'll be worth it, whatever path I choose.
I'm not really sure what else to say, but if you have any questions for me feel free to ask and I'll do my best to answer promptly.
