How can I use manjaro as a stable distro… not rolling release – Non-technical Questions

The question is kind of non sense. You installed a rolling release distro, but you don’t want a rolling release distro?

Easy fix is to not use a rolling release distro.

Not updating the system but installing new packages will result at some point in a broken system, no doubt about that. You have to make the decision, do you want a rolling release distro or not? If the answer is no, then look for an up to date fixed distro, I’m pretty sure they exist. If the answer is yes, then this thread makes no sense, update your system as updates come.
