From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Also I've just actually looked at EndeavourOS' website and it says very clearly front and centre that it's focused on the terminal, which is entirely not what OP was even asking for. It might be a fine distro, I don't know, I've never used it or checked how many years it is since they cocked up, but it doesn't present itself as a KDE focused distro which is what OP (and I) want!
I keep saying that's what turns me off from endeavor as a Manjaro user.
That, and it seems like all the people suggesting it don't really have their minds grounded in reality.
A lot of them legitimately believe Arch is a sufficient replacement for Manjaro, and that just tells me they aren't worth taking seriously.
There's a lot of 🧩 in the FOSS space, and I think we should acknowledge it for what it is instead of putting it on a pedestal.
That must be why it ships with a GUI installer, that can install any of the popular DEs and WMs...
