Oh boy, now’s the last chance to stop before it’s too late.
Don’t, under any circumstances, ever install something called “EndeavourOS”!
It’s the gateway to Å̸̧͉͝R̴̫̮̅͠C̷̪̘̬̓̿H̴̡̏, and once you set foot on that path, you won’t come out the other side without Unix socks and a Blåhaj.

If gaming is a priority, Garuda is a nice one to avoid as well

With the new Apple silicon going on it’s killing Hackintosh by literally having non-Apple silicon going to be no longer supported.

So basically the EoL date for a Hackintosh is when Apple goes EoL on non-Apple silicon with their OS.

Linux from Scratch and Gentoo are also pathways to abilities some would call… unnatural

The socks were in my cart, my mouse pointer right io the order button but before I could click the mouse, I changed my mind. It was almost too late but I installed Fedora just one moment short of being unable to turn back for good…

My first distro was arch btw. It’s not hard if you approach it with a mindset to learn. That’s the whole point of Linux anyway, it’s a tool and the better you know your tool the more capable that tool becomes.

It’s like a lathe with interchangeable parts and gears. You don’t know what your doing it might throw some metal at you but it’s also capable of crafting a precise and finely finished part in a short amount of time.

I also throw fedora on my laptop because laptops are an ergonomic nightmare. Plug and play is nice for when you don’t have time to really learn your tools or do setup and just need any hammer to get the job done. You can still smack your thumb though, it’s not a cordless drill with proprietary batteries like Macos or windows.
