To be fair, I would see why. Arch isn’t that hard to install anymore so some people see Arch-based distros that are just Arch with GUI installer as useless. I use EndeavourOS just because GUI installer is more convinient to me.
Endeavour is objectively better than plain Arch, this list is incredibly subjective.
Edit, according to the reply chain below:
My point applies when the desired result of an install is a day-to-day general-purpose OS on a modern (201X+) system. Where the savings of plain Arch versus Endeavour aren’t noticeable.
Putting Arch in top tier then Endeavour in Why is hilarious
typical arch user
this day and age, Arch is so common it should be in the “Typical” category …
