1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility.

    How do I set up a VNC server from my Manjaro machine? If anyone wants to give a real answer I'd appreciate that too!

    The real asnwer is, you don't. Manjaro is an Italian based distro, and we all know how much Italians work in real life, so this distro doesn't really work either. Your best choice is to ditch Manjaro and use TempleOS for your VNC server.

    If you're on GNOME I believe there's a remote desktop option in settings under sharing which might set it up for you

    I can only see ssh sharing there, no remote desktop option. And I am using GNOME.

    It looks like Manjaro doesn't install the necessary components by default. Found a thread on the Manjaro forum that's a few years old but apparently all you need to do is install a package:

    sudo pacman -S gnome-remote-desktop

    Otherwise there are plenty of other options out there like Remmina
