I am a Linux noobie and have only used Mint for around six months now. While I have definitely learned a lot, I don’t have the time to always be doing crazy power user stuff and just want something that works out of the box. While I love Mint, I want to try out other decently easy to use distros as well, specifically not based on Ubuntu, so no Pop OS. Is Manjaro a possibly good distro for me to check out?

    Just switched to EndeavourOS about a week ago from Manjaro and been liking it so far.

    Biggest reason for the change was my manjaro install was getting cluttered, and moving over to a new distro ( taking all my previous knowledgement with it) has been a blessing.

    Beforehand, my Manjaro install was EFI, whereas my Windows 11 drive ( yes I know) was UEFI so switching on boot was an issue. Now both are on UEFI and show up within Grub.

    Endeavor OS has bluetooth turned off by default. Thought there was an issue but nope.

    So from no issues with updating, even with AUR turned on.

    I just like starting fresh and setting things up with all my previous knowledge.
