Today i learned that manjaro has, in parts, german roots and is maintained by a german company. For that i, as a german myself, want to strongly apologize in the name of the german people!!

      They have had their fair share of (sometimes easily avoidable) fuck-ups.

      Stuff like:

      • letting their websites SSL certificate expire (multiple times)
      • telling users to set the date in their OS back to when the cert was still valid as a workaround
      • accidentally DDoS’ing the AUR (I think multiple times too?)
      • IIRC also some internal struggle about how to use the money donated to them

      Especially the SSL cert hurts. They cannot auto-renew their websites SSL cert (and didn’t seem to learn from their first mistake) and they want to maintain a linux distro?
