I’m gonna put this out there: If you can do Endeavour or Manjaro, you can do Arch, and Arch is in no way less stable than Tumbleweed. All you need to do is to pick btrfs and enable snapshots and then never use them.
Isn’t Endeavour just easy install arch?
I think so, I use EOS on my desktop, but installed no desktop environment, and installed&configured a tilling wm and other stuff for my daily use. I installed Arch on my laptop and aside from the different tilling wm (and other apps for the wm) and some sensible default helper eos apps, the pacman reports are the same.
Manjaro too, but with even more interference
Manjaro is way different, its spearated from the Arch repos. Never used tho, and not plannig to either.
You mean because manjaro packages are older than arch right?
My understanding is that Endevouros just uses the same repos as arch while manjaro delays the package releases for testing, so the packages you get on Endevouros are essentially the same as arch but the same can’t be said of manjaro.
