I've just discovered EndeavourOS and I love it

Then the forum might be expected to support it, and pamac is a Manjaro product, not an EndeavourOS one. Plus it’s iffy when it comes to the AUR. It’s fine for those of us who understand the disadvantages and are willing to deal with them, but for beginners, probably not. I’d definitely steer them more towards pacseek, which is not only pretty user friendly and mouse friendly, it’s also comes under “terminal-centric” :slight_smile:

I would also say that EndeavourOS is not a beginner distro. And the dev team doesn’t want it to be, that’s decided. There’s really no “beginner” Arch-based distro (let us not speak of Manjarno), and I’m not even sure there CAN be a beginner Arch-based distro in the first place, but I think that there’s a fair point that EndeavourOS is not as scary as “terminal centric” can imply to some. Maybe not for beginners, but I definitely recommend it as a next step after a beginner distro, mostly because it provides a nice easy step into terminal operations.
