I've used Ubuntu on both my work laptop and gaming pc. I had audio issues and sometimes USB mouse receiver isn't detected after sleep. the situation was worse on my gaming PC: Ubuntu didn't knew very well to remove old kernels and I ran out of space for many, MANY times.

on my gaming PC I've installed Manjaro two weeks ago and I'm happy about it. sure, I ran into small inconsistent stuff like white gtk color scheme in updater software, no dark theme in lutris (even if it's ticked) and visual artefacts after changing theme / cursor and stuff (which needed a reboot).

I want to install Manjaro on my work laptop but it's an old 860M Nvidia graphics card which isn't supported anymore and the proprietary driver gives me a black screen. hope in Manjaro I won't have these issues. and I hope it will play well along Windows.
