The reason you don't see a lot of love for Manjaro is because your experience isn't quite typical. Manjaro is notorious for taking Arch and making it less stable. It's mostly Arch with some defaults and software to make it easier to set up, but the few cases where it drifts from Arch tend to cause more issues than if you just used Arch directly.
Agreed, i had more issues on Manjaro than i ever did on raw Arch. The Manjaro team, at least during the time i used it, didnt seem very good at keeping things working. So many issues with bad packages, keys expiring, stuff like that.
Arch was a blessing.
However, NixOS has ascended me to heaven lol.
Interesting, I've installed it on quite a few machines now, all with widely varying hardware. Aside from my development/gaming rig I've got a shop laptop which is used by various goons to view shop drawings and look up parts, one the ex-wife still hasn't managed to break, one is my 9 year old daughter's and another is a potato that runs my 3d printer (to be fair this one is fossilized and doesn't get updates).
All are working great with no setup effort and no maintenance so I guess it's a classic case of YMMV. I wouldn't have used Arch for any of those use cases except maybe the 3d printer.
