Not having used Manjaro personally, what's the advantage here? My impression was that it was essentially Arch with a user friendly installer and possibly some nicer defaults.
This seems desirable if you're setting up a PC, but is there really added value there if you're building a ROM image for a phone? It seems like you'd be doing a ton of manual installing and configuring anyway, since it's such an unusual target compared to a typical desktop, regardless of cpu architecture...
- Wheaties466 6y agoI have used manjaro on my personal laptop for the past 4+ years and I share the same sentiment. Great for a computer but I'm not sure what value is added on the pine phone.

- megous 6y agoWhat all of these distros basically do is some non-trivial amount of integration of existing software, and configuring/patching it for PinePhone, presumably. Not sure about manjaro specifically, but it looks like it will be another phosh based distro. Their forum will probably have more info eventually: https://forum.manjaro.org/t/pinephone-will-ship-with-manjaro-next/18369/4 https://forum.manjaro.org/t/pinephone-will-ship-with-manjaro...
