Best summation EVER!

She did it and so did Gale King. The only good thing about this whole narcissistic, class-based, photo op ordeal was this meme. The best part is that they trained together for what, 8 months? They spend almost 3 minutes of their 4 minutes in space taking selfies of each other and playing with their devices. I guess they got their $100k a piece worth of PR.

Long, LONG, time linux user here, but to answer your question, most general users don’t tinker. They want it to ‘just work,’ which is why Apple, and to a lesser extent Windows, has dumbed everything down and made it proprietary (beyond just the locked in money thing) so users don’t have to think. Plus, support is a big money maker, for the corporations anyway.

EndeavourOS doesn’t add anything to Arch performance, it is basically a minimal install of arch with their theming included, which you can opt out of during install. But, to each his own.

I suggest installing EndeavourOS because it is pretty minimal, you can even select the option to not include EOS’s OS theming during the install process, so basically a bare install. Their installer also allows me to choose ext4 instead of the buggy BTRFS file structure. Then, after install and updating, I add the Chaotic-Aur repos. and do an update. Then I get the Garuda Linux repos installed. Why? Because they have lots of handy tools, gaming, power-daemen for both performance and power-savings (laptops) and a handy app for installing kernels, including the CachyOS kernels and their optimizations in the Garuda Settings Manager. If you don’t want ext4 file structure you can skip EOS/Chaotic-Aur and just download Garuda KDE light edition.

Else, get Garuda repos on your system by downloading ‘Garuda-update’ from here, and install with Octopi or CLI command, and then do a system update, then do ‘garuda-update’ in terminal which should pull in the garuda repos (say ‘yes’ when prompted to all the options to add repos.) Minimal system with lots of options to choose.
