I’d personally recommend Garuda, as that’s what I’ve mostly settled with. It’s everything I like about arch, but with lots of little changes and utilities that make it both easy to tweak and easy to just use. The built-in btrfs/snapper is particularly nice. I get the whole toy thing though, it doesn’t give off the most trustworthy vibes. But if you can look past that it’s a great distro. Take a look at the lite edition, it comes without theming and most of the bloat.
