EndeavourOS is moving to KDE Plasma for its live environment and offline installer from Xfce. You’ll hear no complaints from me!
Dope, I’ve been using EndeavourOS with KDE with Wayland and it’s a great experience. Best distro by far (for myself).
At some point I’ll probably need something that supports Wayland, but their custom XFCE is so nice, I love it
Does it use systemd-boot by default?
I’m using EndeavourOS with Sway
There is a default? I installed it at least 5 times in the last year and I don’t remember doing more than clicking a single button to choose KDE, but I had to choose at some point. But my memory is shit
This only applies for the offline installation
Plasma is very lightweight, so no complains here. Although they could implement some convenience-stuff, like Kwallet as default keyring + autostart via dbus. Or a keyfile, so you don’t have to enter your password twice, in case you use full-disk encryption and a swap partition. Small things, but I see little reason not to do it like that. It’s stuff that’s trivial for powerusers but scary for the less experienced.
Endeavour has been great with Plasma. That’s how I’ve always configured it.
I can’t wait until they push the big Wayland update with KDE; I am using Wayland with an Nvidia card and it can be a bit unpredictable.
I use EndeavourOS with KDE and it’s wonderful!
Does anyone know offhand the issues Calamares has with Xfce?
