So instead of using only tor when using tor browser, I can use tor while using firefox, the command line, etc.
I use Manjaro Cinnamon.
I know I’ll have to be careful with emails and some other applications that aren’t encrypted.

It’s not generally recommended.
It increases your fingerprintability and your end-to-end correlation. It will leak unless you have a tightly controlled firewall policy. It can strain the network depending of what you’re doing. You lose all the isolation of the Tor Browser.
There is already Tails and Whonix for system-wide Tor usage.
Don’t take my word for it:
