I am debating mint vs arch. It's been a minute since I fucked around with arch. Dunno if I want to "get into it" with arch or just do a plug'n play distro and take it from there.

I need to gtfo before Win 11 comes crashing down on my life.

I highly suggest Mint. Fucking around in Arch is actually nice but mint is more "windows like". You should experiment with Arch once you get more comfortable with Linux in general, or you like reading documentations a lot. You can dual boot a linux setup(on maybe a 50-100GB partition?) first to check if you like it or not.

If you do plan to get mint then get Mint Debian edition(LMDE 6 "Faye"). Better to be free from any corporate influence(Canonical, IBM etc).

If you like arch but want a plug'n play distro, just do a plug'n play arch-based distro. Garuda is braindead easy.

Do you have experience with endeavouros? Curious about how it and garuda compare as I haven't tried garuda

[-] SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Not tried endeavour, but Garuda is pretty slick, and the forums are read by devs very actively. And OP is right, it's as easy as could be, so easy my wife installed it without having to ask any questions until she got to the niche optional program installs. Even then there was only one thing she wasn't sure she didn't need.

I played with Endeavor years ago, but not extensively. If memory serves, it's pretty much just preconfigured Arch with some nice theming, a Calamares installer, and a few simple scripts. Garuda adds even more theming (too much for my tastes, actually), a few GUI utilities, notifications when your system is overdue for an update, and an update script that runs common post-update tasks (like grub-install) and takes snapper snapshots automatically, so basically user-friendly bloat.

Inlove it ๐Ÿ˜ it is, until now, the least tume consuming distro I tried! Lnstalling it all using yay is just soo nice (I use it with KDE right now, but I think I will get into tailing WM soon.

Hyperland seems to look very nice, but I heard, that the Community is a bit tocic, so I think Iโ€˜ll first test Sway
