          If you spend some time looking into it you will realise how badly manjaro is run.

          If a team can’t even manage to update their SSL certs in time (which is extremely simple to automate) and multiple times asked their users to set their system date back to solve it I really don’t think they are trustworthy when it comes to scraping user data.
