Endeavouros is useless, there is no reason to pick it over Arch. It offers no valuable additional features.

arch or fedora, opensuse tumbleweed is fine though zypper is pretty bad. not using fedora or ubuntu due to the company behind them just seems really stupid to me.

endeavouros isnt a real os, its basically just an arch installer with persistent theming and some pointless additional packages (the welcome application and stuff like that)

fedora workstation and plasma have the same status, its no longer the kde “spin”

arch or fedora if it’s x86-64

neovim, basic development utilities (gcc, make…), zsh, ssh, btop, nvtop, kitty, river, git, cargo, nix, flatpak, ytdlp, ffmpeg, firefox, chromium, python

it literally has one fym

Arch and Fedora; package managers and repositories.

i do it for Autodesk software, it works pretty well

if youre fine with relying on proprietary software you might as well just run it in a windows 11 ltsc iot enterprise vm

you probably really shouldn’t do that.

use fedora, arch, or ubuntu. dont use any of the pointless ones (mint, endeavour, manjaro,…). they are not worth your time. only use wayland (plasma, river, qtile). xorg is not worth your time or sanity.

simplest pick is fedora kde spin. just use that. hdr should work too.

Seems like a very bad decision

Endeavor os is an utterly pointless distro anyway, it doesn’t even host it’s own repos. Just use Arch.
