endeavour OS is a rolling-release Arch-based distro with a convenient installer and full desktop. i installed endeavour when my AMD GPU was still brand-new because i needed to be at the bleeding edge for driver support. i figured i'd switch to a more stable distro eventually but i never made the switch because i'm pretty happy with endeavour.
- giancarlostoro 2y agoI'm currently undecided between endeavour and Fedora. Fedora updates every 6 months, which is recent enough for me, vs years old major versions of things on Debian / Ubuntu.
- TimeBearingDown 2y agoNobara is a nice flavor of Fedora optimized especially for desktop and gaming. I’ve started recommending it to others, while personally I’m happier with Arch’s more transparent and simplified architecture and development, plus rolling release to avoid mass breakage on full upgrades.
- woodrowbarlow 2y agoi suggest endeavour if you already know & like arch but would prefer more convenience (and are willing to accept a slightly opinionated setup as a starting point). or if you need to be at the bleeding edge but aren't thrilled at the thought of configuring every little piece yourself. but rolling-release distros does mean one day you might update and reboot and something is broken. it's more maintenance than fedora.
