I was curious what were the recommended (aka safe) settings for pamac, so for the tl;dr here’s a direct link to some recommended settings for pamac from the community: Any recommend pamac-aur settings for the average user? - #18 by Scotty_Trees
Possibly you and/or your friend you converted to EnOS could try those settings and see if you get similar results as before or if possible maybe it starts to work fine for you two. As always, if you do that course, Timeshift and backups are always your friend
