minus-square@MyNameIsRichard@lemmy.mllinkfedilink5•2 days 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-square@Konstant@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink1•1 day agoMy problem with EndeavourOS is that it is terminal centered. I prefer GUI. Don’t think it has a package manager gui.
minus-square@MyNameIsRichard@lemmy.mllinkfedilink1•15 hours agoDiscover is not working properly on Arch based distros because there’s no packagekit backend for them.
minus-square@MyNameIsRichard@lemmy.mllinkfedilink1•13 hours agoWell Arch and the like tend to managed from the terminal so I guess no one cared enough to write one.
minus-square@MyNameIsRichard@lemmy.mllinkfedilink2•1 day 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-square@Konstant@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink1•edit-21 day 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.

Would you recomend it for daily usage?

Isn’t it running plain KDE? If so, Discover is included.
Discover is not working properly on Arch based distros because there’s no packagekit backend for them.
That’s disappointing, Discover is pretty neat.
