I had to look that one up.
I admit, I've been using EndeavorOS everywhere that isn't a server, and I'm not ashamed; like my doctor says: there's no reward for being in pain; it's not a contest.

…. No reward?
Then your top is doing it wrong; just saying.
What are you talking about? I wish I could do stuff like installing or managing my Arch installations more often, as it’s very relaxing and satisfying. The problem is, my installs never break and there’s nothing to do about them most of the time. I work in IT however and my job throws rocks at me all the time with some bullshit corporate software and horrible Sysadm/DevOps practices and boy’oboy is it frustrating….
I use Manjaro because I'm too lazy to install arch and I could never get endeavor to boot. I just wanna play Titanfall 2 and play with ardour and freecad don't make fun of me 😅
It's a good choice. Just avoid installing stuff from the AUR (at least no system packages)
Completely valid,there´s nothing to make fun of here :)
I'm well known for borking my arch installations, not long ago I was struggling with Grub because apparently I have terrible reading comprehension and kept creating a boot partition with boot flags (EFI) and then installing Grub for my BIOS system... Not that I didn't know it was BIOS, I didn't know I wasn't supposed to flag the partition as bootable.
My head still hurts from the constant bashing against the keyboard and the facepalm upon realizing my stupidity.
I still manually partition my system because I'm a control freak. Fortunately I haven't had to look at partition tables for a long time now.
Archinstall rocks, though installing Arch manually at least once or twice first is an incredibly valuable educational experience. I wouldn't have known what an fstab file was, and I realized just how important that was when I moved some data from a partition into another with dd. I manually reconfigured the fstab and the dopamine jolt I got from successfully doing that is unforgettable (of course, after 2 hours of scrambling on the internet because I borked something again)
As of recent, I've done both of these.
Honestly, just use archinstall, it's a much easier process.
If you didn't fuck up a few partition tabels you are a normie
I EndeavourOS
archinstall has made me actually use the system smoothly and be able to learn using a gui while doing other stuff, big fan !!
being able to research on my pc instead of on my phone is a game changer, streamlining the install process is great
I didnt know archinstall existed when I first installed arch 😔
