It is a common misconception that rolling release distros are inherently less stable than other distros. My experience has been exactly the opposite. I've used, for extended periods, Ubuntu, Manjaro and Arch. Both Manjaro and Arch were far more stable than my experience with Ubuntu. With ubuntu, every time I had to do a full system upgrade it was a crapshoot about whether or not I would be spending the next day or two fixing my system. But with Manjaro and Arch, it's never a full system upgrade, as long as you are doing updates regularly, they tend to remain small and manageable.

I've never had an update brick my system on Arch and have never felt the need to restart from scratch because an update went to shit. But that was an experience I was getting used to on Ubuntu.

Disclaimer, this is just my experience, and your own mileage may vary.

So that's what happened. Thanks for giving me the push to try.

I went with a tiling WM years ago and have never looked back. It's perfect for how I use my PC.

Thank you for this comment. That explains what I've seen when trying to do relative links to help people out.

I tried to search for the community from lemmy.ca (that's the instance you're on right?) and couldn't find it. Perhaps lemmy.ca can't see the community yet. I don't know. I still don't know how all this federated stuff works yet, I've only been here a couple of days.

Looks like perhaps Jerboa doesn't have a way to link to communities in a universal way like the website does. Shame, but I'm sure it will come.

Hmm.. That's a shame. I can confirm that it doesn't work for me in Jerboa either, but it does work on the website. Looks like Jerboa doesn't handle URLs in that format correctly and tries to open it in a browser.

Try this: https://lemmy.ca/c/[email protected]

See my reply for a clickable link that should work on any instance. I haven't tested in Jerboa yet. Let me know if it works.
