What did you not like about EndeavourOS?
The fact that it adds too little to Arch to be seen as a separate entity. And I don't want to run mainline Arch. It requires too much maintenance to work with it properly, and every update is a bit of a gamble on what's gonna break next - unless you spend solid time reading notes to every update.
I have been using both distros in the last 5 years and Manjaro was way more problematic to me than Arch, TBH. The Linux Experiment created a video with some of the big issues of Manjaro BTW. That said, this is no war, everyone can enjoy their favourite distro. Whatever works best for each of us.
Yeah, I am aware of some of those controversies, and they sure are unfortunate!
However, it's really, really hard to find a well-supported distro free of controversies. Still doesn't excuse Manjaro on that front.
I personally did not test Arch for such a long time, but what I had I certainly didn't like. Also, full barebones approach is not for me, and more of an enthusiast kind of thing. So, to each their own indeed!
I didn't like that it doesn't have a graphical software manager like Manjaro
Fair enough. Of course, you know that the exact same graphical installer is also available on EOS right? It is not installed by default but it is in the repos.
Nope. Both pamac and octopi work fine with EndeavourOS. In fact, they work better because the packages are not delayed like they are in Manjaro.
Sure. One of those cons is that you have more packaging problems when you interact with non-Manjaro repos—like the AUR.
