stop recommending mint to noobs and normies! EndeavorOS is stable enough for an average user, while offering the helping hand of ArchWiki and AURs.

    It depends on the person, do they want to just use something which can open the browser, office suite, and occasionaly some games/programs without uderstanding anything, or they like to tinker, and customize, break and repair their system. I recommend Mint/Eos/Arch based on the willingness of thinkering. Cinnamon is easy and straight forward, KDE is not.

    EOS most certainly can open the browser out of the box. I don't see why such a user would have an issue with kde, or, for the matter, why any windows refugee would

    My EOS/Arch had broke down after update 3 times since I use them. 2 times nvidia 1 time grub. Anyone without the knowledge and willingness to thinker, will think linux is bad because broke for no reason. As long as they willing to have a bootable USB next to their PC and don't mind to chroot sometimes EOS/Arch is a better choice. I think many-many people overestimate the average human's knowledge and willingness to understand things. Relevant XKCD 2501
