Manjaro offers a native firewall; simply toggle the switch to activate it. https://manjaro.org/
PopOS receives significant focus from System76 because it appears in their product offerings. It generally looks very refined and supports encryption by default. Many tutorials are tailored for Ubuntu-based systems, which means plenty of community support is available. It's a solid choice without any major drawbacks.
I only tried Pop for a brief period, yet they seemed to issue security patches promptly. It could be safer than other distributions if fewer people manage their servers.
Thanks for the feedback! For me, security was the top priority, so I’ll give it a shot as my regular operating system. I’ve only used Ubuntu-based distros before and didn’t want to switch to another non-Ubuntu platform on my main machine. I’ll keep this in mind for future consideration on a secondary PC to evaluate its performance.
It's troubling how the handling of the matter came across, which is why I can't confidently state Manjaro is secure.
Activate SELinux, configure firewall rules, adhere to standard guidelines (turn off root access, employ sudo, assign proper permissions). This ensures full security.
