(No provocation)

I see these reasons:

  • newbie
  • lazy (don’t wanna edit config files etc.)
  • unique features (like assistant/toolbox, some optimizations like in cachyos)
  • wanna check how different systems are set up (that’s rather distrohopping)

Personally, I used manjaro i3 when I was beigginer and wanted to see how tiling WM should be configured (check out ranger config, for example). But after some time, I don’t see reasons why not to just customize pure arch (same with debian and debian-based distros).

      Idk, I feel like it’s blown out of proportions a bit. It’s always supposed to be unsupported, and users are supposed to look at the PKGBUILD files. I know most people don’t, but I don’t think that’s AUR’s fault.
