i already know manjaro is a piece of shit anyway -

i already know manjaro is a piece of shit anywayThey shipped an unstable Asahi kernel which is broken on some platforms.
Edit: Also Manjaro is nowadays less stability and have more problems than Arch.

they shipped a borked kernel. wow. good job, Manjaro. seems like forgetting to update their SSL certificate 4 times in a row wasn't enough for them.

Always has been

Yeah... Because Asahi is:
a) Meant for Apple's Silicon Macs
b) Still in development

the only two Linux distro's I would ever touch nowadays is Arch and Debian tbh. But I dont think I'll be touching linux for a while since it's too much of a hastle switching from linux to windows just to play some games that aren't supported.

Debian

I haven't really seen much of Fedora, I'm guessing its worth looking into then?

For what it's worth it's miles better than anything Debian or Debian-based distros can offer

How exactly?

Oh man, Manjaro was a fucking treat when I tried it.
Half the time I booted into it with KDE, the fucking panels I had all set up wouldn't even display properly. I couldn't even install it on some computers because of some nonsensical error that I couldn't figure out at the time.
If you couldn't figure out what the hell that error message means, you're not the only one. Basically, it couldn't install the bootloader onto the disk. Of course you wouldn't be able to figure this out until you somehow manage to grasp what the fuck a Grub is or what the hell that huge block of text means.
At some point KDE itself just gave up and stopped working altogether even when I actually got it installed correctly, which was extremely annoying and resulted in me just reinstalling Windows 7 onto the computer I had it on.
Just go with Arch instead of going with a derivation of it. Sure, the installer sucks a donkey's dick but at least it boots quickly, is decently lightweight on hardware that was never meant to run it, and lets you pick which desktop environment you want to use (though you have to install that separately...).

did Manjaro actually... fail to install GRUB?

How do you know that it's the package manager being slow/fast and not because of network conditions?

i don't
dnf just feels like crap
i mean at least it's better than yum

Because I use different package managers to install the same packages on the same network conditions and oddly enough in all cases APT was slower than the others...
