I use arch btw ๐
But fr, between the regular pacman repos, the aur, and flatpak, I can easily get just about any piece of sofware I could ever want with almost no exceptions. Other distros are definitely getting closer, but it seems like arch has always been the undisputed king here. I also like how rolling release means everything is always up to date and I don't have to mess with a major "system upgrade" potentially breaking things.
AUR is the most compelling reason for me to try out Arch to be honest (and also Arch Wiki). I'm thinking that I might compromise and go for EndeavourOS.
