What did you not like about EndeavourOS?
The fact that it adds too little to Arch to be seen as a separate entity. And I don't want to run mainline Arch. It requires too much maintenance to work with it properly, and every update is a bit of a gamble on what's gonna break next - unless you spend solid time reading notes to every update.
I have been using both distros in the last 5 years and Manjaro was way more problematic to me than Arch, TBH. The Linux Experiment created a video with some of the big issues of Manjaro BTW. That said, this is no war, everyone can enjoy their favourite distro. Whatever works best for each of us.
Yeah, I am aware of some of those controversies, and they sure are unfortunate!
However, it's really, really hard to find a well-supported distro free of controversies. Still doesn't excuse Manjaro on that front.
I personally did not test Arch for such a long time, but what I had I certainly didn't like. Also, full barebones approach is not for me, and more of an enthusiast kind of thing. So, to each their own indeed!
I didn't like that it doesn't have a graphical software manager like Manjaro
