Blank icon on panel after new installation

Yes, that is because it is installed with the defaults and we don’t install discover or any graphical paclage managers.

As for the default GUI package manager, please read this:

If you want a GUI package manager, there are 3 options for you to choose from. All are in the AUR. pamac-aur, octopi and bauh

But you shouldn’t. Discover uses packagekit and packagekit has no support for manual intervention. Using any packagekit-based solution on an Arch-based distro is a good way to break your install.

Of course, you can still do that on EndeavourOS by installing discover and packagekit-qt5
