That's why i said "arch-based" not "arch". I don't know about manjaro actually, lots of people on the internet complained how broken it is (or rather was broken, idk), so i decided not to try it. But i've tried and am currently running EndeavourOS. The installation process is as easy as the one of Ubuntu, while OS remains stable, despite me using AURs and manually compiled packages. AURs are far more friendly compared to PPAs. Not to mention the fact that i wasn't always able to find the package i needed among PPAs, and manual compilation often did not work due to Ubuntu's update model.
I don't quite understand, what do you mean by "KISS is not available via pacman", so please, elaborate. To me pacman is as simple to use as apt.
Also, didn't know SteamOS is already available for public, good to know. Gonna try it some day.
I was making a joke about Arch not being simple and pacman not having packages one would expect, often having to turn to AUR to find such packages. Seems the joke failed to land and now we're in "explaining a joke is similar to dissecting a frog" territory.
guess, you sould've kept your joke a bit simpler, stupider even :D
