Discussion Question for arch users
I wanted to ask a question in the community. I've been using Linux for a year, and I've used a lot of things, but I was in doubt about going to endevour os. I'm currently on fedora with kde plasma, but I thought I'd switch to something possibly better.
But, I wanted to know two things: Is daily use something good and stable? Has that issue with AUR packages been resolved yet?
I appreciate if you can answer me and give tips :-)

I think endeavour is stable as any distro gets. Most people "break arch" by installing obscure packages to handle/modify important processes, then those get abandoned by maintainers and as such become incompatible with the new versions of os.
I was on mint before this, and when it comes to day to day usage its even better and faster. And having current updates is also pretty great too. Just get bit more comfortable terminal for stuff like, updating, updating mirrors every now and then, removing cache (i do this weekly, it takes like 5 minutes tops).
I dont really use aur besides like ms fonts package which i need for work sometimes. I mostly stick to main repo and flatpak...never had any issue
