i really don’t think that’s true about arch, but in general i get that there is a spectrum of how much ppl want to be active in the maintenance of their computer.

i use EndeavourOS, but for my wife i give her Kalpa, which is atomic and much more “less fuss, just use computer.”

maybe @makeitwonderful@lemmy.sdf.org would like an immutable distro.

• Aeon
• Kalpa
• Fedora Silverblue
• Fedora Kinoite
• Bazzite

doesn’t bother me, i get what you’re saying.

funny and glib, but not true

i suppose, it’s a loose analogy he brought up, so i was just trying to speak his language.

the point is, the packages are different, particularly core ones. so it is not straight Arch.

It’s not really arch. It’s more like Ubuntu is to Debian.

EndeavourOS is straight arch repos, with one additional optional repo of their own with a few of their tools, branding, etc.

Cachy is opinionated about the OS.

EndeavourOS is only opinionated about the install setup. Arch with sane defaults.

no. it is akin to Manjaro in that it is based on Arch repos, but is opinionated. they have their own kernel, wine, proton, with their patches.

this. and incredibly sane defaults. for me, basically the perfect “traditional” distro and it ended my distrohopping.

great thoughts, thank you for sharing! i’m still quite new to containerization.

understood. this is the route i ended up taking. thank you!
