I had problems with manjaro in regards to package updates and kernel management. As I understood, manjaro uses pacman in a weird way by wrapping it with pamac. Pamac was unable, at least for me, to update/install a single specific package without updating the whole system first. This made daily usage a living hell, because packages that are built from source can make a "htop" installation last 30 mins. On the other hand, yay is by far the best package manager I've ever used.

EDIT: Also, supposedly, Manjaro team has some management issues.

I only ever used pacman and yay in Manjaro, which to me makes complaints about other package managers... weird.

I mean, just don't use them?
