Cinnamon is my favorite Linux desktop environment (DE), but the Cinnamon DE of Manjaro<\/b><\/a> is a “Community” project ‘n hasn’t remained as steady of an OS as I prefer. At one time, Manjaro Cinnamon did offer the root user login option, but then suddenly stopped one day. Tested it again yesterday, but it still doesn’t offer me the root user login option ‘n I won’t use an OS that seeks to ‘cOnTrOl<\/i>‘ what the computer user can & cannot do on their own computers \u2014 I am the Root User<\/i><\/a> on all my computers ‘n refuse to be ‘cOnTrOl<\/i>lEd<\/i>‘ by some Linux ‘<\/b>Nanny<\/b><\/i><\/a>‘<\/b>. \ud83d\udc4e<\/p>\n

However<\/i>, as an ‘Official Image<\/i>‘ that is maintained by the “Manjaro Team” \u2013 Manjaro Linux KDE Plasma has remained steady for me, and I looking to move Manjaro Linux <\/b><\/i>KDE Plasma <\/b><\/i>22.1.0<\/b><\/i><\/a> up into Tier Two<\/b><\/i><\/a> of my Top 10++ Linux Distros. \ud83d\udc4d\ud83d\udc4c\ud83d\udc4f<\/p>\n

More & more Linux Distros are maintaining and\/or<\/b><\/u><\/i> moving too KDE Plasma as an ‘Official Image<\/i>‘, so early last year I started learning how to use the KDE Plasma DE \u2013 KDE Plasma \u2013 \u2018<\/b>Newb TidBits<\/b><\/i>\u2018<\/b><\/a>. Took me awhile, and some mistakes, but I finally got it down \u2013 tho did have some problems yesterday trying to move from their Military Time<\/a> to the 12-hour clock. Used to be able to just click a button ‘n change to the 12-hour option, but not this time. KDE Plasma does take a little effort at times. Also, not all Distros handle KDE Plasma the same \u2014 was testing one the other day, and the Task Manager just wouldn’t let me switch the app icons around so I gave up. If a Linux OS is giving me problems then I add it to a list I keep on them, and usually avoid that Distro in the future. \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n
