I think it’s a huge battery drain compared to all the alternatives, liftoff for example with Lemmy despite using it just as much as I did the official app in testing consumed less than half the battery life. Apollo also consumed about half of the official Reddit app while using Reddit so I dunno.

Also the constant promoted posts are just horrible to deal with.

This does not keep my bookmarks and passwords synced across all the work devices I have to use does it?

I regularly log into 2 work email accounts and have a third that I check monthly. I do this across 5 work devices which are shared, my personal MacBook Air which is used primarily for work and my phone.

If Firefox has sync features that work with cloud storage as opposed to device storage it would be practical otherwise it’s no go

My work emails all run through the google suite of applications and I have two of them plus drive etc so having chrome allows me to have multiple profiles for each work account and they are remote managed by the company.

You know that’s not a Manjaro problem that’s a user problem, you’re specifically warned that AUR compatibility is not guaranteed with Manjaro https://wiki.manjaro.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository

But people often ignore this and then complain that Manjaro isn’t stable.

And yes Manjaro is fully rolling just because they delay packages a week doesn’t stop it being rolling, that’s like calling tumbleweed not a rolling release?

I’m not arguing that Manjaro is better or worse than Arch just that if you use it as intended it functions correctly and is a good way to learn Linux and Arch.

Tory government investing in nuclear energy?

Nah boris and his lot would rather get bungs from the local lads and keep us in the dark ages.

Labour aren’t exactly gonna do it either with Tory lite candidates atm. We are well and truly proper fucked.

I don’t think I would want to live in a world without cheese.

I think only endeavour and Manjaro still hold any use of the arch based distros.

Endeavour generally has nice tools and is pretty much what you’d do with the install script so it just saves a few steps.

Manjaro because it’s a gateway into learning arch for better or worse.

But other than those two I don’t see the point of any other arch distros other than to be made for the sake of it.

(I forgot steam os 3, but that’s a different topic)

My Reddit account was 2013 so just about 10 years this month when I left.

Honestly, they're horrible I can't believe people still buy them when wanting an Android experience. They come with so much bloat now and it just feels jank constantly.

I'd never recommend them to anyone but then again, Google Pixel devices aren't much better due to how unstable they are and you're essentially beta testing the phones as you go. Big part of the issue with Android phones these days.

Hey at least the top gun sequel was actually good. I don't think Sequels should be branded as crap movies by default, Sure F&F X and so forth are garbage but there are some genuinely good sequels too.
