manjaro, unless you can’t handle the plethora of meme type people telling you it is terrible, and downvoting you as if they have a point.
It is the logical entry point if you want an arch base.

garuda is also decent, some of their versions are over the top shiny, but mokka, and kde lite are much easier on the eye.

bluestar might also interest you, I have it installed, but haven’t looked into it much yet.

Manjaro has been awesome. I use it for work and it is pretty bulletproof. My other laptop is using Arch (btw) so having the same de and package managers is awesome. The GUI software installer is pretty great for my wife, she never needs to open a terminal.

Very interesting. I saw a video of a DaVinci Resolve user recommending Manjaro to run it, so it adds up. Thanks!
