I am debating mint vs arch. It's been a minute since I fucked around with arch. Dunno if I want to "get into it" with arch or just do a plug'n play distro and take it from there.

I need to gtfo before Win 11 comes crashing down on my life.

If you like arch but want a plug'n play distro, just do a plug'n play arch-based distro. Garuda is braindead easy.

Do you have experience with endeavouros? Curious about how it and garuda compare as I haven't tried garuda

I played with Endeavor years ago, but not extensively. If memory serves, it's pretty much just preconfigured Arch with some nice theming, a Calamares installer, and a few simple scripts. Garuda adds even more theming (too much for my tastes, actually), a few GUI utilities, notifications when your system is overdue for an update, and an update script that runs common post-update tasks (like grub-install) and takes snapper snapshots automatically, so basically user-friendly bloat.
