Well, I'm a Manjaro user — I'm also a moderator at the official Manjaro
forum — and Manjaro is a curated rolling-release distribution.  There
have been some glitches every once in a while, but in overall, I'm very
happy with how stable and robust it is.

I don't use Trinity — I'm a Plasma guy — but I have checked it out in
PCLinuxOS.  It had a few glitches and, after having used Plasma 4 and
now using Plasma 5, an outdated feel for my taste.  But I wouldn't
categorize it as shit.  It was definitely usable.

I strongly suspect that the original post was actually deliberately
intended as flame bait.  Besides, it's that time of the year again. ;)
