I installed EndeavourOS the other day for exactly this reason. It’s really great not to have to spend like a full ass day configuring a desktop environment. I’ve already done that plenty, thanks!
tbh it isn’t too bad, it almost felt a bit uhhhh cosplay-hardcore-ish? idk how to describe. There’s a big thing made about you having to configure the network, which you definitely do, but other than that everything seems to basically work out of the box.
Of course things can go wrong, which they did in my case (dual-boot issues with windows & linux affecting the network card) which made it so I took a full week to get to a decent install. So yeah there’s that.
i will admit here that i use garuda because i wanna use arch but not install and configure arch
