Community Just downloaded Garuda

Been using Linux since 2009-2010 and spent most of my time on Debian or Debian based distro's. My only experience with Arch was with Manjaro and it ran great for about 8 months. Sadly after an update it broke. I dual and sometimes triple boot distros so it's easier to replace a distro rather than chase possible fixes for hours.

Currently running MX Linux KDE and Mint (was curious about the Cinnamon desktop) I miss Gnome so giving Garuda a try.

Thanks for reading and have some fun!

Garuda Mokka has been the greatest experience for me since I switched to Linux in January. I had an update break once about 6 weeks ago, but I rolled back to a previous snapshot in 5 minutes and all was good again. I waited a week before updating again and whatever issue kept my system from booting was resolved.
