Rolling release between Arch and Rhino(Ubuntu based)
Looks like it's not a rolling release. It's a stable ubuntu with unstable packages (from the pacstall repo)

Anything similar to AUR in PopOS ? I am a Linux noob.
Check out https://pacstall.dev/

Yep.. I'm dumping APT for Nala.
If you use Pacstall, you can run pacstall -I nala-deb

Name a program that doesn't get enough love!
Lastly, deb-get + pacstall + bauh. All of these combined covers 99% of my software needs, much less need to find and install PPAs and .deb manually. Still not as convenient as AUR, but much better than it was before. Hopefully, eventually everything is on Flatpak, snap, or AppImage so I could just use Bauh for most apps, but for now, I'm glad that these tools exists.

My computer just freezes when installing librewolf. I used both yay and cloned it from got, neither one worked.
Get Librewolf from chaotic-aur https://aur.chaotic.cx/ and avoid building it entirely.

Some unofficial repos may be helpful, like Chaotic-AUR.
- how it feels when aur download is taking longer so you leave it on in the background and forget to put password at the end and all progress is canceled

I am officially one of you.

How do you guys manage AUR compilation?
Just use chaotic-aur and whatever aur helper you already use. Then you’d only have to compile the more obscure packages.

Needed packages, best windows manager (ur opinion), and some help
The Chaotic-AUR is the GOAT. Follow the website's instructions to use it. It's like the AUR; but precompiled, so installing from it is much faster.

Some games not launching due to invalid file descriptor
so i got it working, but instead of vanilla wine i use wine-tkg-staging-fsync-git, you can get by adding chaotic-aur well known pre-build binaries repo, use at your own risk but it's a very popular and well known repo.
- What can I expect more from EndavourOS other than easy-install Arch?
