I think gitui deserves to be on the list

Is it a switch in gnome sw or settings? If not it's not pretty easy

It used to be, Snap ootb is remarkably horrible, I had a not-good internet plan and Snap drove me crazy with its updates, I could've settled fine if auto updates could be switched off, but nope, they're shoved down my throat, I'd say Mint is a better starter distro

I'm running Plasma 5 on my i5 5200U on iGPU on X11 and it's pretty much stable and solid (it's not riced a lot though), isn't Plasma 6 still pre-release?

Endeavor allows you to pick from a number of DEs/WMs on installationa

I guess you could try an immutable distro (Fedora Silverblue comes to mind) if you want something that just works and you don't want to use it for programming

That really doesn't sound right, I have a 930m and it ran GTA V on med-high 720p (on Windows though..), the game itself is ps3/x360 era so you probably have a problem with the driver or maybe double check it's running on dGPU

It's not about including, it's about forcing, my laptop still has an HDD and when that garbage dropped I kept my laptop idle (couldn't use it since HDD usage was rocking 100%) for like 6 freaking hours, my HDD isn't that empty either so I don't know what the heck my PC was doing

Imo it's better that you wait, you could try installing vanilla Arch in a vm and distrohop once you're ready, if PopOS is suiting all your needs imo there's no reason to get Arch on bare metal (A vm for fun and learning would be satisfying ig), on a side note, getting the proprietary NVIDIA driver to run is very simple in vanilla Arch (like a 4 steps or so)
