   Fedora vs Antergos Comments

   Positive comment by Guest · May 25, 2019

   It can be an alternative, but Fedora isn't a rolling release like Arch, but it can be considered a bleeding edge distro. Not as much when compared to Arch, but it's something that worth mentioning.

   Positive comment by RemovedUser · May 31, 2019

   Unless you're really into the Arch ecosystem and depend on things like AUR or the rolling release model, Fedora is a great alternative that's both up-to-date and extremely stable.

   Arch Linux vs Antergos Comments

   Positive comment by alexandredarochacelestino · Oct 4, 2019

   Simply the Patriarch of Antergos and Manjaro.

   Positive comment by Guest · May 25, 2019

   It's the closest alternative to Antergos. Some say and I completely agree that Antergos was just an Arch installer. So, why not using pure Arch?

   Negative comment by Guest · May 5, 2020

   Unlike Antergos, Arch it's hardly "plug and play" as it requires installing from CLI and a lengthy configuration process; there are however installers like AL Installer, Anarchy Linux o Arch Labs that pretty much fill these requirements

   Manjaro Linux vs Antergos Comments

   Top Positive Comment by John Fastman · Dec 20, 2016

   Manjaro and Antergos are both rolling release, Arch-based Linux distros offering multiple desktop environments. Manjaro, however, is the more polished, more user-friendly and with the better community support. The world is big enough for both, but it's hard to see why Manjaro shouldn't be the first choice between the two.

   Positive comment by Oscar Sanderson · Jun 13, 2021

   I like Manjaro as an alternative to Antergos because it is Arch based and is very easy to use

   Positive comment by Guest · Apr 24, 2020

   Assuming someone uses Antergos because they want an Arch distro with an easy install, that sounds exactly like Manjaro.

   Created as a successor to Antergos Linux.

   Positive comment by Jack Vegas · May 2, 2021

   Has a dead-simple installation process for an Arch system. Keeps things much simpler and direct than a distro like Manjaro does. If you want an easy installation like with Antergos, this is it.

   Positive comment by James Van Damme · Oct 24, 2020

   Continues the development of Antergos directly. Based on Arch.

    Qubes OS vs Antergos Comments

    Negative comment by John Fastman · Apr 18, 2018

    Qubes is a Debian-based Linux distro aimed at security, rather than usability. It compartmentalizes your activity into virtual machines which makes your workflow hard for most common tasks and increases system load. Great for whistle-blowers, not for video editors. Antergos is based on Arch and aims at delivering a friendlier Arch-based experience out-of-the box. Manjaro is closest to Antergos.

    Lubuntu vs Antergos Comments

    Negative comment by Guest · May 25, 2019

    Not a bleeding edge and rolling release distribution. Lubuntu is part of the official Ubuntu flavors that uses LXDE (pre-18.04) and LXQt (pos-18.10) as the desktop environment. Lubuntu is aimed for those with a old and dated computer/laptop or with bad specs. Lubuntu is simple, lightweight and fast.
