  • I’ve been using it since it succeeded Antergos (2019ish) and I’ve really enjoyed it, I use it on most of my systems! It has really sane defaults and makes for a good Arch experience that doesn’t involve setting things up yourself. If you like XFCE, they have the best out of the box theming I’ve seen a distro have for it, but there are other DEs that you can pick (I think you need internet access during the install IIRC).

    It has its own repository that has some nice apps in it (like AUR helpers). The community around the distro is also really good, whenever I’ve come across an issue posted on the forums everyone seems really chill and noob friendly.

    Other than that, it’s basically a GUI Arch installer (an amazing one at that!) that doesn’t get in your way and it just works. There’s been probably one problem, in the four years I’ve used it, that wasn’t caused by me breaking things (the grub incident), but the distro’s response to that was very well done.

    The only other distros I use are Arch and Debian, but EndeavourOS is always my recommendation for people newer to Linux. It just works.





  • For me it’s a case of where the end justifies the means. While murder is terrible and I’d personally feel bad if I had to take another life, it’d be for the greater good of our species (as well as every other lifeform on this planet) if the world was suddenly ridded of a billionaire or two… or more…

    I do recognise that this is a slippery slope in justifying homicide, but what is the alternative?
