You could run Ubuntu or Debian on the PBP. @KC9UDX is just pointing out some fair and helpful advice, since the PBP comes with Manjaro installed. There have been many new PBP owners that get theirs and are later surprised or dissatisfied when something breaks in Manjaro.
But it is entirely possible to switch to another OS from the wiki list. I've successfully changed the OS on the PBP eMMC, even without a support computer (granted it took a while, since i had to make a bootable SD while booted from the eMMC, then reboot into the SD and use it to install a new OS to the eMMC.)
