They seem to be doing UI changes to the website.
Currently the non-ARM version of the ISO is in the main page (https://endeavouros.com/) just scroll down and you'll find the mirror list of the most recent ISO by country. Dunno why it's there NGL shrug
I can only speak to my expierence with Manjaro, and it was....not good. It pretty much found a way to uniquely break itself every boot from me...just treating it like I would Arch (i didn't find out how you're maybe supposed to use it till later, when i moved on to another distro). And in every Manjaro post or comment, there's several anecdotes that are similiar to mine: somehow, someway, Manjaro freaked out and died...and then there's a couple that are like yours: "I've used it for several years with zero problems" and i gotta ask: how? Legit curious. Is "waiting 14 days to update + not using the AUR at all, if possible" sound advise or am I waaaay off the mark?
Pasting an old reply of mine from another thread answering this same question:
Manjaro is…tricky.
I’ve called it an Arch based distro that kinda sucks at being an Arch based distro before, and I stand by that. You can’t treat Manjaro like you would EndeavourOS or Vanilla Arch Linux because of how Manjaro decides to do things: essentially, updates are held back by a couple of weeks for better and worse instead of being released as they’re made avaliable. While that means it can catch disastrous things like the GRUB issue another user pointed out (Manjaro was unaffected by it IIRC), it also means the system is prone to breaking itself more often. And you can forget about using the AUR if you’re using Manjaro–or well, you can, but the AUR and Manjaro are nortorious for not playing nice with one another because of the latter’s tendencies to hold back packages, which, natrually, leads to even more breaking.
Personally, I wouldn’t recomend it. However, If you don’t mind being extra careful with what you install (really that’s standard practice for any distro, but hey, I’ve never found a WIP package that messed up my system anywhere other than when using Manjaro, so make of that what you will), are willing to tolerate constant mild to severe breakage, and just using Flatpaks and appimages over the AUR, then give Manjaro a try, but otherwise? Go with EndeavourOS, or Garuda, or literally anything else.
I also do this, partly outta habit and partly to hear the sounds my mechanical keyboard makes when typing lol
Anyways, I'd say you're golden if you wanna give Endeavour a shot then
Yet another "Time to reccomend EndeavourOS" reply.
Seriously tho, EndeavourOS is a pretty solid distro, and not that different from what you're currently rocking (Manjaro is based on Arch) except well...it actually works as an Arch based distro should, unlike Manjaro. EndeavourOS's a bit on the light side tho, and it comes with no GUI Add/Remove Software outta the box, but if you don't like using the Konsole for that, nothing a "yay pamac-all" (or "yay pamac-all-no-snap") and a bit of installing the packages you want/need can't fix.
I mean, it's Epic. I doubt they were thinking
Depends. Do the people around you or your friends/family heavily use WhatsApp to stay in touch (Like, to the point of if you don't have and use the thing, you've basically got no way to contact people)? If yes, well, I wouldn't go as far as to call you stupid, but you did probably make your life harder for yourself unless you're a hermit.
Sometimes ya just gotta bite the bullet and understand that absolutes aren't possible. Or, they are possible, but they're more impractical than they're worth
Dare I ask why not?
Manjaro is Arch and Endeavour is not
So if Manjaro is Arch, I should be able to get daily updates and use the AUR without a problem, right?
....right?
I bet the experience outside of Steam Deck depends a lot on the dist, graphics drivers and card and someone's personal knowledge/willingness to screw around making everything work
In my experience, it's been about the same. Then again, I also use an Arch based distro on my desktop, but I dunno, even when I distrohopped a lot and used other distros and hadn't replaced some of my specs, gaming wasn't a pain to setup or do in general unless it was something that specifically didn't work with Linux (maybe modding was hard at first, but once I found out what worked for me, I was golden).
Didn't ask for it...but at the same time, actually existing beats not existing IMO. And since I (and by extension, you and anyone else) exist in an uncaring universe, I am free to live life as I please--within reason--so all things considered it's...actually not bad at all. Yeah there's sucky parts to it, but most things that are worth it have bumps in the road.
