Why I Switched to Nobara Linux, and Why You Should Too
The Pros, Cons, and Surprises of a Bold Move
I wrote an article on my switch to Nobara Linux. I think this community might enjoy the journey.

I’ve had a significantly better experience with EndeavourOS than I ever had with Nobara, or literally any other distro, and the list of them I’ve run through is pretty long. Nobara was good, and I’d be curious to see how its improved, but at this point I’m so happy with Endeavour that I don’t know when I’d ever get around to putting Nobara on bare metal again.
Same. Endeavour is everything I ever wanted out of Linux, and the time between Antergos and Endeavour were dark days indeed.
I second this, switched back to EndeavourOS after a brief stint with Nobara and I couldn't be happier. I haven't really found that solid OS I had been looking for until Endeavour, and I think everyone should give it a shot. They literally lay out everything you need to do after the install to get things up and running with their welcome tool.
Good to know, You aren't the first to tell me that so maybe I'll give that a go next.
I’ve been working on my CLI skills and knowledge over the past year, and moving to an arch based system was a little confusing for me. Using yay, pacman, and git cloning were a little over my head after being used to apt and flatpak. After the first week, it all started to click, and now I’m fine, and I definitely feel more competent in the terminal, and no longer use any gui front ends for package management.
Mint and Pop had issues, steam would lag like crazy for the first five minutes after launch. Then after updating to the latest version of mint, steam stopped launching period. I’m sure it’s fixed by now, but that’s what drove me to jump ship, and it’s been the snappiest, cleanest experience I’ve had yet. I also love space, and the color purple, so it’s the first distro where I used their native theming and wallpapers, and shit it looks good.
The forum has also been a pleasant experience, the community is very friendly.
