I made a post a few days ago asking your opinion on Manjaro and it was very mixed, with a slightly negative overall opinion. I heard some recommend EndeavourOS instead and did some online research and it seems to be pretty solid and not have the repository problem that Manjaro has.
Just for context I am a Linux noob and have only used Mint for about the past six months. While I don’t have any major complaints, I am looking to explore more distros and the Arch repository with its rolling releases. I am not a huge fan of how certain packages on apt are a few years old and outdated. However, I also don’t have the time to be always configuring my OS and just want something that works well out of the box.
Is EndeavourOS a solid choice?
Pretty awesome experience; if you’re new to Arch and Linux are both great ways combined to learn about it. It did break on me but nothing super problematic.
If you don’t auto update or update weekly you’ll have a pretty fine experience.
I picked it to enforce me to learn the way of Linux and or Arch specific since the aur and wiki are pretty nice.
Though do come from relative mild Linux experience and a great Windows knowledge from my job as sysadmin.
Do wanna see how I could incorporate more Linux into my environment for tasks.
