What makes an Arch system an Arch system is the repos, the package manager and the fact that you installed it yourself.
Anyone giving you support will expect you to be able to answer a couple of questions about your system based on the fact you yourself configured it.
With EndeavourOS, even if you have the exact same repos, it still wouldn't be an Arch system.
And now get off my lawn!
Those aren't normal issues.
It sounds more like a driver or hardware issue which may only pop up in KDE (Wayland) and not in your other WMs (X11).
As a first step, try logging into the KDE (X11) Session and see if it still happens.
When you do more than necessary, one or more of the following will happen:
Your coworkers stop doing their most unpleasant tasks, knowing you'll pick up the slack.
Your more ambitious coworkers start sabotaging you, viewing you as a rival to the next higher position.
Your less ambitious coworkers start sabotaging you, cause your effort shines a light on how little they get done.
Your boss notices unrest in his team and boots you to restore the peace.
Free career advice: Do the average team member's amount of the assigned work.
If you have the time and motivation to do more, use that to improve your efficiency through automation, self-study, researching methods that reduce friction, etc. If you're in a job that lend itself to automation, you will at some point be able to spend most of your time for studying.
Share your new tools with the team to help them.
When you feel limited by your role, apply somewhere else with your new skills.
I eventually gave up trying to make myself exercise every day.
But I am fortunate enough that I could chose to live within cycling distance of my work.
Now I bike to work every day, which is technically transportation, not exercise, so I don't mind it.
This summer I'm going to move into an apartment 11 miles from work. I'm really looking forward to it.
Yes, a bicycle is a vehicle.
I have no idea why it shouldn't be. It's a machine you use for transportation.
Many of them even have motors or engines, even though that's not a requirement.
If you have no issues with Wayland, keep using it. You aren't missing anything.
Linux is a vast space, and some people have use cases that aren't covered by Wayland, yet.
So they still use X.
The learning curve is non-existent for its use case.
You boot it up, open the software center, choose the apps you like and run them.
It's like Android for the PC.
If you notice a learning curve, run into barriers, or try to wrap your head around containers and layering, you're already not the target demographic, and better off using a traditional distro.
I tried Silverblue.
And I wanted to run it without layering, cause everyone tells you to avoid it, since it kinda defeats the purpose of an atomic distro in the first place.
First of all, it was buggy. As an example, automatic updates didn't work, I had to click the update button and reboot twice for it to actually apply, even though it was activated in the settings.
None of the docs helped (actually, there wasn't any in-depth documentation at all). And no one had a solution besides "It should actually just work".
That's the main advantage (the devs test with the exact same system you run) gone right from the start.
Then Firefox is part of the base image, but it's Fedora's version, which doesn't come with all codecs.
If you install Firefox from Flathub, you now have 2 Firefox's installed, with identical icons in the GUI. So you need to hide one by deleting its desktop file. Except you can't. So you have to copy it into your home directory and edit it with a text editor to hide the icon.
Then I went through all the installed programs to replace the Fedora version with the Flathub version, cause what's the point of Flatpak if I'm using derivative versions? I want what the app's dev made.
Then it was missing command line tools I'm used to. Installing them in a container didn't work well cause they need access to the entire system.
Finally, I realized even Gnome Tweaks wasn't part of the installation, and it isn't available as Flatpak.
That's the point where I tipped my hat and went back to Debian. Which isn't atomic, but never gave me any issues in the first place.
Maybe it's better now, I was on the previous version. Or maybe the Ublue flavours are better. But I don't see any reason to start distro-hopping again after that first experience.
What I did was [add Flathub, don't remember if it's already done by default, and] go through all installed apps in the software center once, check if the Flathub version was made by the app's devs directly, and if so, switch the source from Fedora to Flathub. I only kept the Fedora version if the Flatpak was made by an independent third party.
I'm not sure if Silverblue is even the right distro for me if I care about such things this much, though.
