Just checked the fstab on my tablet and they have subvolumes for root, home, srv, cache, log and tmp. I also have snap-pac installed and not sure if it’s installed by default but I assume it is. Their KDE is awesome! Very polished. They have really taken the time to make arch easy.
They have all sorts of aliases in the .bashrc that are there to make transitioning to arch a little less daunting to the average user. Things like reflector to stay current with mirrorlists.
The have warnings when something is wrong during updates with instructions how to fix, taking care of conflicts during updates, fixing pacman lock, garuda-update remote fix to restore pacman to their default’s. Chaotic AUR might be installed by default, not sure it’s been a long while since I installed. Great setup assistant, and installer. btrfs-assistant and eza setup. Might want to install and set up meld to handle pacdiff in the .bashrc alias pacdiff="sudo -H DIFFPROG=meld pacdiff"
If you want easyarch Garuda is it. If you want a real arch experience without having to go through the manual install process, endeavour or archinstall is the way to go. You might have to setup btrfs and snapper the way you want it manually though. Im not sure about endeavour as I haven’t used it in a while. It’s pretty easy to do though.
Is there a distro that sets this up well by default?
Garuda Linux -> https://garudalinux.org/
