I just wanted to make a first post to introduce myself and say thank you to all the mods and members.
I’m an enthusiast and am not any kind of IT professional but I’ve already learned a lot here after lurking for a little while. I’m coming over from MX-19 which is also a great distro and it allowed me to get to a point where I could try something more challenging. So far my EndeavourOS experience has been outstanding. This place definitely has a more welcoming vibe than so many other forums.
i am happily running both distros on different laptops
both in KDE with almost identical set ups … sometimes need to check the wallpaper to confirm which distro i am using
only a month into endeavour and really like it but not sure what you mean by ‘stepping up the game’ …
apart from leaarnig a new package manager, i don’t notice a great deal of difference for my personal usage … internetting…torrenting … movie watching and the occasional blob of work
also i do timeshift back ups with endeavour rather than the snapshot ISOs that i use on mx … (that snapshot/iso creator feature is definitely MXs flagship app)
i like having 2 forums to browse though …
and welcome to endeavour @AspiringGeek … nice, helpful people be here
That sums up a lot of my experience as well. The biggest challenge for any Linux distro is installation and initial setup. The rest is pretty much the same as long as you’re talking the same desktop environment.
