Describe the bug
https://userguide.mdanalysis.org/stable/installation.html#conda suggests to install mamba inside the mda env

conda create --name mdanalysis
conda activate mdanalysis
conda install -c conda-forge mamba

but this is not recommended in the official mamba instructions for mamba with existing conda where it is explicitly said

WARNING: Installing mamba into any other environment than base is not supported.
