Why I think Manjaro is awesome for steem integrated development environment

Unlike Ubuntu, Manjaro is based on ArchLinux hence it is a rolling release (Which means you'll always get the latest software without requiring to change edition) it beats LTS.

It also comes with it's own GUI package manager and it's all up to date and free

Bitcoin wallet is inside the repo too

You can also easily change the kernel using GUI to suit your hardware (not everyone is CLI whore you know)

Personally I think manjaro will get more popular than ubuntu in the coming years.

Why use linux desktop?

Because an Operating System is such a low-level element in our digital lives, users need to trust it 100%. Windows and Mac have backdoors and are not worthy of trust. However Deepin as an alternative comes from a country with the Great Firewall of China and appears to be funded by 'Wuhan Technology' company.
