This was an interesting read, and even though I’m still on Manjaro Linux, I see now it is much closer to Arch than Manjaro is.
It’s a good point being made that Manjaro’s slight delaying of their package updates, can sometimes break dependencies when those dependencies are updated ahead of the actual Manjaro packages.
In fact, with EndeavourOS being so much closer to Arch, it is actually overall more bleeding edge on updates than Manjaro, so for those wanting just a friendlier GUI Arch itself, this may be the one to go for. On DistroWatch I see EndeavourOS listed as number 2 (with Debian-based MX Linux as number 1 across the board).
