Hello!

I’ve bought new parts and I am awaiting their arrival so I can build my brand new computer. I’ve decided to go for Arch Linux with KDE plasma or perhaps Gnome as my desktop environment but that’s as far as I’ve come.

I figured I would ask the community if they have any tips or suggestions, thanks!

    Arch is low-bloat. But it’s also a lot of work.

    EndeavourOS is arch-based without the bloat of manjaro.

    Mint is non-bloated and it “just works.”

    Debian is non-bloat, a bit of work to set up, but then it’s more “stable” than arch.

    If you’re ambitious enough to try arch, but you’re a beginner, I think Debian is an excellent choice.
