IDK man. I tried Linux a few times, and it never stuck. Things don't work, it involves endless reading, or the latter then the prior on loop (where as windows just works).

I'm trying out endeavour ATM and hopefully it will stick. But it took me a solid few attempts, over days, to find out "where does pacman get its apps from". I know the answer is more conplex, but eventually I foind and the arch web db...with the help of perlexoty.AI.

I didn't realise it was different than the AUR web db look basically identical. I never noticed the URL difference. As far as Linux has come its still little frustrations that hold it back for even semi tech literste pople.

I'm trying to save from posting in forums (and have rooted a few androids with less than a handfull of posts) but I can't even work out from the wiki how I can give pacman a list apps to install when it's spaced out on each line, without making it a .txt file. It's pretty impossible to "just read" and work out simple things.

Maybe it's just like my opinion. (I am liking endevour so far).

Getting Arch-based distro as a daily-driver feels like a very strange choice to me, however I should admit that I still use Arch-wiki as a first source of help in case I encounter any problems. But if you like Endeavour, good for you! I should probably check it out too some time :)
