From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

My vote goes to KDE Neon. Or Pop OS but I really like Neon! I tried using Manjaro with KDE for a few months but it's just nowhere near as simple as Debian based distros. Never realized how convenient .deb packages were until I couldn't use them lol
Did you try AUR?
I did for a while and I got some stuff to run pretty easily! I actually really liked the way pamac and pacman work but then I started getting a bunch of errors about a corrupt database. I found a way to fix it for pacman but pamac was still broken and I could not for the life of me figure out how to fix it so I took the noob route and ran back to Debian lol
