I hate Arch’s installation process but love AUR, and having always up-to-date packages. The new archinstall script that comes with it is actually really straight forward. Also, I install a complete, bloated gnome desktop environment, set up everything once and the resulting OS is really user friendly.
The chaotic AUR singlehandedly makes Arch great (on weaker machines).
I use EndeavorOS (99% Arch) and I haven’t looked back. Up to date software, knowing what’s in my system, minimal bloat, but I would recommend Fedora or openSUSE to beginners and intermediates. I can’t recommend Ubuntu or Manjaro. Using either one of those is like signing your sanity away.

Calam Arch exists.
