== What should I be aware of if I'm not on an  LTS kernel? ==
* "Stable"and "Release Candidate" (RC) kernels are *Development* kernels
* They have the newest, shiniest features but are not as rock-solid as LTS kernels
* These kernels become End of Life (EOL) much quicker than LTS kernels, so you should keep an eye on:
1. The Manjaro #announcements
OR
2. Linus Torvald's [https://kernel.org kernel page] to know when your shiny new genie will go "poof" back into its bottle. 🧞 🪔
* If you're on a RC kernel, update frequently and stay on that kernel once it becomes stable
* If you're on a Stable kernel, install a higher version Stable kernel ''the moment it gets releases as '''Stable''''' (so don't jump on the RC kernel bandwagon: these are ''less stable than what you've got already'')
* Shut down or reboot your machine at least once per day. (Like Windows: that's as unstable as a RC Linux kernel)  😂
* '''Manjaro is one of the few distros that supports Stable and RC kernels''' so live with a bit of frustration if things go a bit wonky every now and then and certainly don't install Ubuntu or Mint or RHEL as they will just not support any of this.
