your computer can pretty much run every single distribution in any desktop environment without a problem so go wild and try lots of them, pick anything a let yourself have a good week with it and it's online documentation to do your thing every of them have good and bad parts.
when asked the filesystem pick btrfs and set-up snapshots, that will save your ass when needed and it's so quick you could break your system every week without being bothered
I found youtube in particular to use very generic functionq that are used in other places so blocking something small ends up blocking other things, iirc from the long time ago that I wasn't using piped, blocking youtube premium prompt broke comments or something along those lines
Not a single mention of the thing can go without one of you rushing to your keyboard to recite your mantra, I've seen less proselytism at a protestant gathering than when Manjaro is even vaguely peeked in a screenshot, you don't even care what they did bad you just run on the bandwagon to feel like you're part of a movement, you read somewhere they "DdOSseD ThE AuR" and fucked up with certs then run with that when those same people tried to push a Closed source Office suite in their iso's in full conscience, but you don't care about that since you didn't spend a single second actually asking yourself why you hate it, you just look for validation picking up whatever new hate trend you saw online.
It's uses in the theming space is already ironical since it's supposed to be a pejorative term for cars, it's use is way beyond it's origins now, and it's root in racism is flimsy at best, if one day goth groups start hanging out in gyms to bother people doing sports, calling them gym crows won't be a racist statement despite what the wiki will say about it.
you quickly feel like it's not a distro for convenience but for enterprise productivity, yast is incredibly powerful and filled to the brim esoteric professionall options but little no no though for a casual experience, the repos don't have much in the way of fun and are even software p*tent respecting meaning codecs and such need a separate config, the suse specific tools have their own theming , a lot of thing (like mounting luks volumes) require admin passwords... most of these can be remedied will a little tinkering but why bother when other distro are way simpler to tailor and already have a more comfortable experience out of the box
You know, archlinux has an install script that's pretty easy to run nowadays, you should try it, that way you won't feel the bitter taste of prior failures as strongly as you do now
