I really wish OP would try a distro other than Manjaro. But since they are, frankly, I am not at all surprised at stability issues. I do not think I have seen any of these issues on a non-Manjaro distro. For some more context:

Manjaro consistently applies incomplete and WIP patches into their builds, causing that sort of instability. Every time I have had a strange issue filed in a program I maintain, it has been traced back to Manjaro doing something like that.
- jm4 4y agoManjaro sucks. The thing is, it's really nice out of the box - frankly, it's probably the nicest OOB experience. Their desktop looks great and the layout switcher is cool. I also like the utility that lets you choose different kernel versions. The pamac package manager is great (if you ignore the fact that it has some problems with the way it works with AUR). Unfortunately, it has all kinds of problems under the hood that will eventually bite the kind of user Manjaro is trying to attract. It's a strange situation where one has to be familiar with Arch to understand why Manjaro isn't working. IMO, Manjaro should take the Endeavour route and just use the upstream repositories. Manjaro does a lot right and brings some good ideas, but they are really lacking on the reliability and professionalism fronts.
