Maybe what I’m looking for is the holy grail, but what do you guys suggest as a Distro with a good balance between stability and up-to-date packages?

      They did mention stable, which is not something Manjaro can claim in my experience. They tend to hold back packages in the name of stability but it causes problems when using the AUR sometimes.

        @CrescentMadeJr @Sleep4288 isn’t the AUR a use at your own risk proposition? The manjaro system is stable if you use the manjaro packages, using the AUR means you are adding variables of potential instability yourself, and if you don’t take it upon yourself to mitigate them, the instability is your fault not theirs.

        “Manjaro is not stable because it ensures no breaking updates are pushed to users” is such a weird statement to make.
