I install Fedora Workstation and change nothing. I’m pretty happy with GNOME in that case. KDE has been too fiddley for me the last few times I tried it. It’s there a distro that has a default KDE setup that feels minimal and out of the way?
ive had and heard of many bad experiences with manjaro, though they do a couple of cool things. i really wish you all the best on your manjaro endeavours, but would recommend (not from experience but rather what i have gathered) to use endeavourOS over manjaro. also that would fit your name nicely
endOS is like manjaro based on Arch. they feel closely related, hence the recommendation.
i probably wouldn’t install it because i don’t want to deal with Arch’s quick update cycle, but that’s just my personal preference and no statement about the quality of arch and its derivatives.

arch probably
Not Arch, it’s 100% bog standard on Arch.
Which is great and what most people want, but the parent poster wants something pre-configured to be minimalist.
Garuda KDE-lite is what I’ve been using my and it’s great
Thanks I will try it

The Fedora Workstation KDE spin and Manjaro as well as Endeavor all feel cluttered and janky IMO. Glad you like it though.

Strong recommendation of EndeavourOS over Manjaro.
