Linux Mint for people who have better things to do with their time.

EndeavorOS, arch based, gui installer up and running just as fast as a linux mint, but simply better

Arch based? GUI installer? installs even faster than EndeavorOS?

Tried it, and it didnt work properly. Manjaro works like a charm tho

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (3 children)

manjaro works, until it doesn't

That’s what “works like a charm” should mean, IMO. It works great until it fails spectacularly.

Take a typical tiger charm, designed to ward off tigers. Works great, until you encounter a tiger at close range.

That's true for everything though lol, but I get what you mean

I mean, I have no idea how didn't manage to make EndeavorOS work, but managed to make Manjaro work, so maybe it's a PEBKAC thing.

Manjaro has broken AUR support multiple times on purpose. No thanks.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah, but then you have to tell people you use something that sounds like an exotic dancer's stage name. I'll stick with Endeavour.
