MAN💪jaro
Dude is a bot replying "Manjaro on x86 crashes and breaks alot". I would say Manjaro breaks a lot regardless of the architecture: https://manjarno.snorlax.sh/

let's update, darling? X let's update, MF!
windows: forces major updates to a new not yet ready major version windows: every app has a auto-launch and randomly updates in the background or is outdated windows: updates get stuck and happen right before meetings, etc windows: adds ads to your filemanager during updates and overall is more of a downgrade linux: i tell it t update when it fits me and dont even have to restart (ok its better to reboot after major updates, but i can also tell it to download&install everything and apply it during the next reboot) linux: if for some reason anything breaks i can just undo the update within grub/systemd-boot - meanwhile updating thunderbird killed one of my windows installations permanently manjaro: a burning shipwreck on all sides minimal-distros and other ones i wouldnt recommend for average users: updates require the terminal mint/pop/ubuntu/fedora: updates are neat little pop-ups and just offer it and work

Arch-based Distros
Sets out to be an easy entry to Arch with sane defaults. It tries to achieve this by making the installation of Arch easy, adding GUI-tools to ease you into Linux, own repos with less bleeding-edge software and it ships a configured Btrfs+Timeshift for easy rollbacks to a working system. Unfortunately, the team behind Manjaro has some troubles...

Windows XP 2024 Edition is everything I want from a new OS
Whenever I set up a new computer for older family members, despite it being windows 11, I always install open shell[1] and retro bar[2]. Between the two, I've made the operating system look very close to Windows XP visually, and they always appreciate it.

There is also Open Shell, a free and open source tool which performs a similar function.

Ask HN: How do you “clean” Windows from all bloatware?
I use Open Shell (fork of Classic Shell) as a replacement to original Start Menu. This gives me full control over what appears in start menu - no results from internet, animated tiles, etc (I am on Win 10 though, from what I read the Win 11 is supported, but not yet officially [1]). It could be a solution to the ads appearing in start menu.

I missed the old windows so i tried to recreate it
Looks like you're going for an XP theme. May I suggest using open-shell to skin the taskbar, start menu, and start button if you wanna take that extra step? You can also find the taskbar skin and start button here. Also, I would remove the search bar, task view button, and news & interest area of the taskbar just to bring things together. This is all just a suggestion, you don't have to if you don't want to.

make windows 11 look like windows xp!
not sure if this is the right place to post but windows 11 was restricted and the description says that anything that has the microsoft windows xp look and feel is welcome here so here i go. this here is a guide on how to make windows 11 (and maybe 10, didnt test it on that) look like windows xp, but slightly more modern. first get retrobar, from here. then once youve done that run the setup (it might ask you to install dotnet, so do that.) then run it. now right click your taskbar and click on properties. then youre gonna leave everything the same except for the theme, wich youll set to windows xp royale. once youve done that click ok. now you need openshell. you can get it right here. then install that and go launch "open shell menu settings." now in start menu style set it to classic with 2 collumns then click select skin (right under the option i just told you to click) and set it to windows aero, and have the options like this. no icons in second column on, show user picture on, show username on, center usernname optional but i reccoment off, small icons on, large font off, reduce glass color off, and finally, white sub menu's on. then click ok. now get the dark theme bliss from my google drive over here, and set it as your wallpaper, you dont have to, but it makes it look better. then get the recycle bin icon somewhere on the interwebs and go to settings>personalisation>themes>desktop icon settings. then set the empty bin to an empty windows xp bin ico file. and set the full one to the same one, or if you have time (and disk space) to waste, set it to a full version of it. now youre done! ill try to figure out how to change the windows 11 logo in about windows and give an update once i get that done. thats it for now, bye!
