Awe Snap! This is fantastic... The Ezarcher and EndeavourOS are my only 2 ways of installing arch anymore... I'm sure Ezra will be glad for the ShoutOut! He does do a great job on his ISO and Scripts... You and Eznix are 2 of my favorite channels to watch! Yes I'm old and slow too! LOL I was surprised to see a video as I expected it until next week ... LOL Had my 2 shots and the 2nd one gave me a bit of a day in bed... Thanks for the video OTB! LLAP

Great Steve, thanks! Actually I wanted to live briefly in Plasma for a month or so, and did the same 'automatic' install like yourself(Archlabs in my case). But I'll clean the metal and will install Eznix's version. He's indeed due more attention (been following him for a year or so). And it's so much fun tweaking his scripts.

I believe his nickname is pronounced "easy nicks", just crossed my mind. He's in osdn.net as well by the project name "Ezarcher" (I hate sourceforge too!) Hats off to you for not leaving a fellow Linux enthusiast behind. Cheers!

Don't see anything wrong with Source Forge. It's easier than Github and doesn't infect your system with malware like CNet used to do.

Thanks for this content Steve, always watch Eznix and yourself. have used the Ezyarcher scripted install when you introduced me to it in one of your earlier videos, have just installed KDE via Calamares and the new Eznix ISO, have Arcolinux on my other machine also originally introduced to me by you, so thanks again from another otb, looking forward to your future thoughts

Thanks for the video. May I bother you with an unrelated question. A while ago you ditched Kdenlive. At the time you appeared to be in a sort of transitional period as far as video editing goes. So, I was just wondering - what Linux video editing software would you recommend today? Macho love!

I like anyone who doesn't feel the need to flex their tech-superiority about installing/using Arch the "Arch" way. Been their, done that. No need to do it again. I've been working in or around IT for the better part of 35 professional years and have better things to do with my time these days. Back to the topic... Endeavour on my prod and backup machines for a good while now. They do a good job of improving things that are worth improving while making things accessible for folks with a logical installer and a welcoming forum.

OTB, this is a nice review but I absolutely loath Arch. My philosophy of a good OS is an OS that makes things easier, not more difficult. Arch is a good idea but seems rather incomplete. Mint/LXDE is my ticket. It is fast and simple. Well done OTB!
