I’m new to linux, started with mint after getting so frustrated with windows after the new year, still have it but only for compatibility. BIOS flashing destroyed GRUB for mint and I got sick of Ubuntu. I wanted to do Kali but that’s not for daily drivers. I saw EndeavourOS and I was like “wow”. so I ran Endeavour on a VM (In windows cuz ubuntu cant do stuff) and I was convinced I wiped Ubuntu off of the surface of the earth and got this AMAZING OS. I love the pre-boot terminal stuff and GRUB has a background! Oh, my user is IanEternally but refer to me as IE if ya want. Thanks! ---

Hi, @IanEternally Welcome. Nice to know that you appreciate EOS as well. I’ve had quite a journey before ending up with EOS, and Ubuntu was one of the stations along the way. I thought it did what it was supposed to do very well, and it did in fact start my Linux journey, (Ubuntu 6.6, later Xubuntu and Kubuntu), but once I discovered there was so much more to choose from, I started distro hopping for some time, until ending up with EOS, which has been rock solid for my use case ever since. Enjoy the ride! ---

What you may want to do is, to try out _Cinnamon_ and _KDE Plasma_ as desktop environments in EOS, because the latter is fancy, the former is specifically for traditional Windows users and by Linux Mint users. ---
