I'd like to get away from "arch bad for new users" - eviltoast

When I say arch I mean the arch distro and all of its offspring.

Endeavouros

Arch-gui

Manjaro

Artix --maybe not though

My first enjoyable distro was manjaro, the manjaro element less so but using arch clicked for me. But even so if my first experience was using arch and archinstall then yes its not the easiest but its also not that difficult, arch is treated like a boss battle in darksouls.

So when a pre configured GUI arch is recommend I would like to see less scar mongering.

    I agree, I’ve used a lot of distros from popos, manjaro, fedora, nobara, kde neon, but until I found endeavouros (and steam deck) I just thought linux was in a bad limbo state that I could never see myself switching to.

    unlike the other distros, I know for certain any problem I’ve had with endeavouros has been my own fault.

    although, I still hope someone can jump in and make the experience more user friendly, like valve with steamos.
