Hi everyone :).

Just getting started with Manjaro as daily drive to get some easier arched based distro. Except for the LVM bug with calamares everything is pretty smooth :).

But at first boot, I saw they have added their personal Manjaro logo on boot and I directly though of the bug exploit logoFAIL I heard a few month ago and It made me curious if this is something that could be exploitable by Manjaro.

Probably not, this would harm their image and hard worked system, but I’m still curious… If someone smarter/more knowledgeable than me could chime in and give some valuable information on this topic regarding Manjaro, I would really appreciate it !

Thank you !

    They don’t accept there own mistakes even. They do things like ship a broken kernel and then blame the upstream development.

    Why even use it? There are much better options.

        M1 Mac kernel from upstream. They didn’t bother to tell anyone and just pulled from master.

          Yeah you can do that, it’s in the license. You don’t have to “tell someone”, you just have to publish the source.
