Manjaro 21.1 “Pahvo” arrives almost five months after Manjaro 21.0 “Ornara” and it’s the first release of the Arch Linux-based distribution. Pahvo ships with the latest and greatest GNOME 40 desktop environment that features a redesigned Activities Overview, as well as numerous other visual changes.

The Manjaro 21.0 “Ornara” release shipped only with support for GNOME 40 apps, but now users of the GNOME edition can finally enjoy a full-featured GNOME 40 desktop. And, for those who don’t like the new Activities Overview design, there’s the good old vertical desktop layout too.
