TuxJam 105 – Manjarmity

This month your trynamic trio of Kevie, Dave (aka thelovebug) and Andrew (aka mcnalu) begin with their usual perusal of recent releases on distrowatch. They then disagree on who decided on what to review in this episode and then agree it was all of them, demonstrating that while there is indeed no ‘I’ in team, nor is there a ‘we’.

On emerging from this paradox they take a look at Manjaro (Arm) with the Wayland compositor Sway and the venerable Arity Calculator for Android available from F-droid.

Creative commons tracks played in this episode are:

#777 Jackpot
