g day dear friends, :)


which one of the arch-based systems do you recommend. there are pretty much out there.

that said: in the Linux world, Arch Linux is often discussed as the system with the cult and freak-factor. i have heard alot of Arch and the famous lightweight aspects that belongs to this distribution
The Arch distribution seems to offer bleeding-edge character that - which is loved by the (more) experienced user. And the updates - they come with a - lets say a DIY (do it yourself) attitude.

Question: which one of the arch-based systems would you recommend to choose: there are pretty much out there.

ArcoLinux
Garuda Linux
Archlabs Linux
RebornOS
ArchMan

those are called slim, leightweight and i think that is interesting.

btw: i heard that Arch itself now comes with a graphic-installer. ?! is this true!?

well - I have tried EndeavourOS and also Manjaro so far.
Do you know Cachy or have you ever worked with it?


i really look forward to hear from you:cool:
 


I would go with EndeavourOS, Garuda, ArcoLinux or CachyOS. If you've used one Arch-based distribution than it's pretty mucht the same experience except for the different pre-installed packages. I've never heard of ArchMan or RebornOS and if I remember correctly Archlabs is just an installer script for Arch. If I were to go for an Arch-based distribution I would go for EndeavourOS or Garuda since their communities are great and they seem to be just Arch with a graphical installer with a sane set of minimal defaults. I've heard good things of CachyOS too, so that may be worth a try as well.

Awesome: this encourages me to go - and to start with some of the Arch-based distris.

the EndeavourOs-Community - i also have heard that this is a nice place with good support.

Ah yes: CachyOS - i will also have a look on it.

Many thanks for your awesome posting - very helpful and encouraging me.

Greetings :)
 
I have used arch and a couple of those distros in the past. and what I would recommend would depend on you experience level with Linux? EndeavourOS is great but requires a good understanding of the command line and package management. Though they do have a great forum. Catchy is good also. But I just didn't care for it that much. Manjaro is what I would recommend if your experience level is newbie then go with manjaro until your level increases.
Good luck with whatever you choose.
