I have always found manjaro to be excellent. I actually also like their rolling release process. I find the manajro release process much better (for me) than that used by Gentoo distros, for example. The only issue I ever really have had, in over 5 years of manjaro use, was with systemd errors (not actually a manajro problem). But even that over the years became more stable. Lately I, also, have played around with ArchLabs. It, is also a wonderful distro, especially well tuned to Openbox, i3wm and bspwm.
There is no need to ever be embarrassed about learning, trying, and expanding your vistas...
