    I’m finally making the jump to EOS when my new desktop gets here ~Monday, so this timing is awesome. Super excited!

      I’ve set up several distros on VMs lately (CachyOS, Bazzite, EOS, PikaOS, NixOS, and more), and Endeavor has one of the absolute best installation and onboarding experiences.

      Something about it just feels so polished, though keep an eye on PikaOS. They’ve got some great UX people on their team.

    Splendid! I have a laptop running Arch, and while I did set that one up manually, it was a lot of work. Next time, when I do it on my gaming PC, I’m definitely using Endeavour

      Well Pop is based on Ubuntu, while EndeavourOS is based on Arch. So package availability is a little different. I’ve never really had issues with either but only really checked out Pop for a few weeks. I’m typing this from my EOS rig I play all my games on that’s been stable and happy for maybe a year now.

      One distro is fairly similar (or can be made similar) to another more or less if you get into it. I’ve found EndeavourOS pretty damn easy to set up and run for what that’s worth and run it on three different machines right now.

        Ah right. I’ve ran Arch before but got tired of things breaking sometimes so I wanted something more stable. How stable is EOS? Are a lot of manual fixes needed?

    Funny, just installed EOS on my new system and it’s been great! Only had a few small hiccups with setup due to the strange setup I have.
