So I’m looking for a new distro rec and having a hard time landing on one. I started off on PopOS for a couple of years and it was fine, but I wanted something a little different, then I switched to Bazzite and found out I love KDE and dislike immutable distros.

I primarily use my machine for gaming and secondarily for small coding projects and a lil home labbing. And based on my previous selections you can probably tell I don’t want to have to mess with a lot of settings or configurations to get coding or gaming.

I’m currently leaning towards EndeavuorOS or Garuda, but wanted to hear some other opinions.

For a little more background I checked out Manjaro and Nobara, but liked Endeavuor a bit more. My GPU and CPU are both AMD and relatively new.

    Garida has the most polished easy Arch and fully tweeked KDE experiance i have found. I think that it is the best introductory Arch distro out there. Dragonized edition comes fully loaded with all your gaming needs packaged up in the distro. Comes with chaotic AUR already installed so most of what you want from the AUR is precompiled and doesn’t have to be built.

    10/10 would recommend.
