 ## Software I Use
 
 ### OS Distribution
-[Manjaro](https://manjaro.org/) (stable) though this is a bit of a moot point since there's been a lot of convergence among the
-popular distros recently especially since they all offer some dedicated channel for getting up-to-date
-software. The real day-to-day difference to workflow comes from the choice of desktop environment.
