  • Using Linux Full-Time 2 years later
    And I ended up picking EndeavourOS, Why? Manjaro had a bad reputation at the time of my research and the package holding back, Garuda has too much eye candy in the fresh install that bugs me, Arco... Has 4 ISO choices which confused me and the website sort of turns me off. - Source: dev.to / 4 months ago
  • help out a noob
    Usually I recommend linux mint for beginners but hyprland may be a little bit hard to install there. So maybe in your case the best option is an arch based system with a graphical installer. A lot of people here recommend endeavourOS. Download the iso, install it to a VM and take your first steps. Once you are a little bit familiar with it, you may try to set up dual boot and run it on bare metal. Take small... Source: 5 months ago
  • I don't understand audio, I experiment things with my laptop audio, it will work then it won't work. (Using EasyEffects)
    Let me close with a tip. Check out the Arch Wiki. IIRC EndevourOS is a fork of Arch. Note the British spelling ;-). Source: 10 months ago
  • How exactly does dual boot work?
    Taking my advice means you might want to remove Arch, for now. Get Mint or Pop, spend some time with them to learn more about Linux, how Linux works, the various software and tools, how to configure and customize it. Once you are more knowledgeable (weeks/months later), then go read the Arch Wiki. Along with reading the Arch Wiki check out Average Linux User on youtube (... Source: 10 months ago

  • Is artix a good alternative to manjaro
    However, if you're bothered by how it's more geared towards gamers, then perhaps consider EndeavourOS or Arch Linux instead. Source: 11 months ago
  • Net Thread Issues, Fps/Ms (Solution)
    You could also consider making the switch to Linux and give the bird to Microsoft all together. I've been gaming with Nobara (https://nobaraproject.org/) and EndeavourOS (https://endeavouros.com/) exclusively for the last year to good effect. Star Citizen has a great Linux community at LUG here:. Source: 11 months ago
  • Distro for general use, light gaming and 3D modelling
    Arch: "The wet-dream of the minimalist and/or tinkerer". Huge community. Best documentation. Expects the user to be knowledgeable or at least (very) eager to learn. Tends to be less stable\1]) than the other two, though in general the user is to blame. 'Derivatives' like EndeavourOS and Garuda Linux do a decent job at offering 'relatively' easy installers (even for Nvidia drivers). Source: 11 months ago
  • Steam Deck is a DREAM for retro emulation!
    No need to wait around, download something like EndeavourOS which is pretty similar to steamOS as in it is based on the arch linux distribution. Doesn’t need anything complex, graphical installer and comes with all the drivers you need (afaik, it comes with the proprietary nvidia driver, max performance out of the box for nvidia cards), also rocks an AppStore and whatever. All games which work on steam deck work... Source: 11 months ago
  • I want to get started with a Linux dayli driver.
    Unfortunately Manjaro's trackrecord leaves a lot to be desired. Is there any particular reason why you'd recommend it over the likes of EndeavourOS or Garuda Linux? I am genuinely curious, btw*. Source: 11 months ago
  • $~4k 'Treat yourself' setup - anything obviously wrong? Haven't done this for a long time.
    Https://endeavouros.com/ (endeavorOS, basically same as arch but graphical installer, CLI installer is actually pretty easy but people call it hard for no reason). Source: 11 months ago
  • Linux - what flavor?
    Endeavour - based on Arch. Rolling distro; updates are frequent. Source: 11 months ago
  • A distro for a newbie?
    Fair enough. Give EndeavourOS a try if you want more up to date packages. The Arch Linux ecosystem is cozy. Source: 11 months ago
  • I tried so hard, and got so far...
    Try https://endeavouros.com/ . It sticks to the core Arch Linux philosophy, even using the Arch repositories. It just has a better GUI installer and some helping hands for some of the things that are difficult for non-expert Linux users (or ppl who just want a working OS). Full disk encryption with custom positions worked flawlessly. It also has a supportive community that offers help without all the troll... Source: 12 months ago
  • In your opinion, what is the most user-friendly, bleeding-edge, yet stable Linux distro for a Windows user?
    User-friendly, Bleeding-edge, yet stable is a bit contradictory. Maybe look at EndeavourOS (Plasma?) which is the easiest to install and maintain of all the arch-based distro's? It might be a challenge (worth it though) but it has a massive and friendly support community if any help is needed. Source: 12 months ago
  • Today i woke up and this very important question popped up in my mind: how many people who own a SteamDeck are also using Linux as their daily driver?
    I use https://endeavouros.com/ om my Laptop and my desktop PC. Ubuntu Server on a raspberry Pi and LibreOS on the other. Source: 12 months ago
  • GPD Pocket 3 i7 with Ubuntu Mate, touch screen wonky
    Your best chances are using EndeavourOS with Gnome 3 + fixes from the ArchWiki, or Ubuntu 23.04 + probably the same fixes. Source: 12 months ago
  • Installing Linux for First Time - What Distro(s) Should I Be Looking Into?
    That website is a joke, it's rigged to put out EndeavourOS regardless. EndeavourOS is cool, though*. Source: 12 months ago
  • Installing Linux for First Time - What Distro(s) Should I Be Looking Into?
    If Arch is enticing, though intimidating; perhaps consider EndeavorOS (and the like). EndeavourOS is still more hands-on than any of the other mentioned distros*. Source: 12 months ago
  • which is better reborn os or cachy os
    If you just want a 'wrapper' around archinstall, perhaps consider EndeavourOS. Source: 12 months ago
  • How do I remove this Ubuntu Pro ad from apt?
    If you want Arch Linux with a bit less work and a nice graphical installer, use https://endeavouros.com. Source: 12 months ago
