minus-squareKonstant@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 month agoWould you recomend it for daily usage?
minus-squareMyNameIsRichard@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up6·1 month agoI used Tumbleweed for eight years with no problems. I only moved to EndeavourOS because Suse bared their corporate teeth and I got fed up being a couple of generations behind on the Nvidia drivers. EndeavourOS is also good.
minus-squareKonstant@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 month agoMy problem with EndeavourOS is that it is terminal centered. I prefer GUI. Don’t think it has a package manager gui.
minus-squareDomi@lemmy.secnd.melinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 month agoIsn’t it running plain KDE? If so, Discover is included.
minus-squareMyNameIsRichard@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 month agoDiscover is not working properly on Arch based distros because there’s no packagekit backend for them.
minus-squareDomi@lemmy.secnd.melinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 month agoThat’s disappointing, Discover is pretty neat.
minus-squareMyNameIsRichard@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 month agoWell Arch and the like tend to managed from the terminal so I guess no one cared enough to write one.
minus-squareMyNameIsRichard@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 month agoYou can install Octopi or Pamac which both handle the standard repositories and the aur. I don’t know if they handle flatpak or snap though.
minus-squareKonstant@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·edit-21 month agoI believe I tried Pamac in a VM and it didn’t work properly. Or it didn’t exist in the repôs. I might check it out again if I have time.

minus-squareWeAreAllOne@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·1 month agoUsed tumbleweed for ages. No issues. Switched to slowroll again with no issues. Now trying fedora. All with Kde plasma.
Remembers Tumbleweed fondly
