Not really sure how archinstall factors in since it wasn’t around yet when I first installed, but I love EndeavourOS. I’ve installed arch before, but I really can’t be bothered if I’m just going to end up installing all of the same packages the GUI could give me in less time anyway. Yeah, EndeavourOS is just arch with some small extra packages and a GUI installer, but that’s exactly why I like it.
Archinstall is not at all newbie friendly, especially compared to calamares and endeavourOS setup. Also, having a usblive is very convenient in case of problems.
If you don’t have advanced knowledge nor want to customize it very thoroughly, I don’t see any reason to use arch over endeavourOS. I mean, other than the fun of experimenting with the innards of linux, testing your frustration tolerance, and ending up being able to say “I use arch BTW”.
Eh. Not quite. Yes, the main editions use Ubuntu as a starting point, but they remove a load of Canonical’s cruft, like Snaps. They have their own suite of applications, the XApps, that are forks of other tools, as well as a number of other improvements and changes.
I couldn’t say whether it’s as far from Ubuntu as Ubuntu is from the original Debian, but it’s some distance removed for sure.
And LMDE is based on Debian, skipping Ubuntu entirely.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Posts must be relevant to operating systems running the Linux kernel. GNU/Linux or otherwise.
Wrong
This should be linuxmemes forum, not a serious one.
It’s blatantly somewhere between unfunny joke and obvious troll.
Tier lists and opinions are one thing and sometimes they look funny or trolly, but based on the only one answer from him to any of the replies is:
I would assume the same as you.
Just say you don’t like Ubuntu lol
this post is bad and you should feel bad for posting it

I feel exactly the same! I installed EndeavorOS because I liked the default theme lmao
In your word, pointless.
This list is so bad, it has to be a troll.
It’s funny.
This multiples my wish to die by 100x

if you really looked into Guix, it would proboably be at the top of this tierlist
I feel like this list was designed to purposefully piss everyone off.
Also, Debian is the basis for the majority of popular distros out there. “Bad”, my ass.
Mint is Ubuntu

Why is green bad and red good? Seems like the color choices are as odd as the opinions in the list.
Its not very good. Because my distro isn’t on there
What is it ?
