I recommend EndeavorOS now to everyone that actually wants to learn linux, or people that don’t want to be “fighting” their os.
It works enough to not have to do anything to it besides update, including installing nvidia drivers. And it’s arch based so they can just read the arch wiki if they have questions.
Honestly the only issue ive had with it is one of apps not working on wayland so i just had to switch to x11.
Its a little less noob friendly than manjaro (they had great guis that make it so you never need to open a terminal at all) but i cant recommend manjaro anymore since they dont support the latest version of pacman.
As far as an os that’s close to enterprise servers, if they aren’t contanerizing the workloads and running k8s on a distroless (or atleast minimal) base image then i don’t want to work there anyway.
I have had the exact experience you’re describing, as a Linux noob. I used Ubuntu Cinnamon for a while, and it worked well OOTB but it also felt a bit too much like using a Mac or something. Very streamlined, not as customizable, it didn’t really inspire you to go out learning how Linux works. Plus all of the things I’ve heard about Red Hat made me want to make a change, and EndeavourOS has been awesome. It’s incredibly fast and lightweight, and I’ve been able to configure it to do just about everything I want to so far. If it fails short, it only ever really seems to be just a lack of knowledge on my part.
