I have been looking around and found a few new Distros which I plan to test and perhaps use. These are all Arch based.
Exodia (dwm, bspwm) Arch Distro: https://exodia-os.github.io/exodia-website/?ref=news.itsfoss.com
CachyOS (gnome, kde) Arch Distro: https://cachyos.org/
XeroLinux (Stable base Arch): https://xerolinux.xyz/

i heard good things about arch linux
I agree. Some distributions are truely different distributions of Linux. But those are different distributions of desktop environment. They are not distributing Linux itself any differently, and having to reinstall your base OS for this seems like a waste.
For user friendliness, it would be nice if those “desktop environment distributions” were instead available as packages. Like I can do “pacman -S [your desktop env package]” and it sets up the desktop environment with all its configurations. It should be much easier to do this way, for both developers and users.
I’ve been keeping tabs on Cachy for a while. I’d love to try it but I’m way too invested in NixOS. I eventually want to work on a project to offer these optimizations in NixOS and have a binary cache available for other users, but that would require a lot of storage and processing power since every single package would have to be rebuilt.
New Arch and Ubuntu spins, there’s a new one every hour!
